"Reality cannot be grasped or fully understood, nor can the meaning of existence be settled."
Artist: Giorgia Bellotti
Project: The Saboteur
"My photographic investigation involved in this ongoing project begins with some substantial elements from René Magritte's surrealist thought, which I reinterpret according to my very own photographic approach.
The aspects that fascinate me when I look at his works are the rejection of human logic, the irrational component of creativity, and the desire to express the manifestations of the subconscious mind."
"I try to grasp his view and to materialize it in the worldly dimension, but I find myself lost in the absurdity of such illogical displacement. As a consequence, I fail in my pretentious attempt to interpret the immensity of his art through my own language.
But has anyone really managed to understand the mystery of life?
This question represents the sense of bewilderment we experience in this elusive and enigmatic universe, which we think can have the same meaning for everybody; that nonsense of which each of us can give a different interpretation depending on the emotions they derive from it. Reality, in its own unfathomable mystery, preserves beauty."
