Wallpaperさんのインスタグラム写真 - (WallpaperInstagram)「Rising star photographer Silvia Rosi (@slyrosi) has created a series of regal self-portraits for the September Style Special issue of Wallpaper* 📷⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Shot in Villa Boschetti, a 15th-century feudal palace-turned-mansion near Modena, Italy, Rosi photographed herself wearing wearing statement fringed pieces from the Autumn/Winter 2020 collections.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ The images combine conventions of West African studio photography and ancient Italian architecture. The Villa Boschett was familiar to Rosi as it’s located in San Cesario sul Panaro, the small village in which the Italian-Togolese artist grew up, and also because her mother and stepfather were married there.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ‘On the outside of the Villa, there are frescoes of fake painted doors and windows, which were made after its refurbishment,’ she says. ‘They remind me of how West African photographers would use backdrops to create the illusion of a space.’⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ The story serves as a marker of a period of time spent in San Cesario, which she temporarily relocated back to from her home in London when Covid-19 first hit Europe. Poised, expressive, and reflective, the resulting images look back upon her own heritage, both Togolese and Italian, and forwards, to the evolution of her artistic practice. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Take a look at the full series via the link in bio.⁠⠀ ( 📷: @slyrosi / 🧥 @jasonhughesinfo ) .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ #SilviaRosi #SelfPortraiture #VillaBoschetti #Italy #Fashion #Design #WallpaperMagazine」8月26日 2時13分
