Massimiliano Favilli

Altered States of Reality: an Exhibition of Analog and Digital Fine Art Photography
November 19 - December 9, 2008

Reception: Thursday November 20, 2008 6-8 PM

Press Release

Massimiliano Favilli synthesizes painting and photography, creating effervescent images that hover between documentation and expression. The fusion of photograph and painting allows Favilli to be both a social commentator and a free spirit. Initially, his photographs capture the corruption, the quietness, and the power struggles that characterize contemporary life. But when he works back into the images with paint, he opens them up to new possibilities. Prone figures become conduits of expressive energy and urban landscapes morph into dreamscapes. Determining whether the image is a photograph or a painting ultimately becomes impossible and irrelevant. Favilli eternalizes each moment and he aims to transcend the intolerance and prejudice that stifles every day reality by depicting.

Favilli learned from observing his father, also a photographer, that art can simultaneously critique society and express emotions. He has pursued art since childhood. Favilli has exhibited in both Italy and New York. He lives and works in Piombino, Italy.
