Suspended Shadows

• Photographer
  Andrea Taschin

Spring 2020-I shot the images from the terrace of my apartment in Florence during the covid19 lockdown. Few people pass through the street for shopping, going to work, walking the dog, throwing the trash. I propose images of shadows deprived of the body and of the objects that generated them, shadows suspended in a timeless time, visual metaphors of anguish and anxiety of this period and as representation of an absence. The shadows wander alone and converge together towards a single attractor, an empty space, a vortex, a sign of a common anguish or a collective hope for a still missing answer
