Unframed

Vidéo | hdv | couleur | 4:22 | Italie | 2018

In "Unframed", the city is object of observation from inside a nebula black, floating, cavernous, mysterious. As in the depths of a primordial cave, the urban overview is fragmented in a collage-city in form of video. The drone unveils the Milan urban fabric with its patterns, grains and densities: from historical city emerges a new contemporary skyline. "Unframed" investigates the possibility to create images with mobile and fluid outline, an aerial view, sinuous and oscillating, in an incessant fluctuation. "Unframed" documents the odeporic approach of the contemporary culture in which the perception is an idiomatic overview.
