Honorable Mention / 2023 / Architecture / Interior

Metaphysic of a descent

For years I photograph abandoned places and very often I come across beautiful stairs belonging to palaces of ancient noble families.
When I look at these stairs, and the decadence in which they are, I can't help thinking of the similarity between the ups and downs of the stairs and the ascent of these important noble families and their melancholy descent, of which I am the last silent spectator.I always add a pictorial style to all my photographs to give a touch of elegance to these environments.

Christian Basetti from Milan.
Since 2015, he has been passionate about ancient decadent places, giving voice to these structures full of melancholy charm as if they were silent narcissistic creatures waiting for someone to express their greatness.
Inspired by Caravaggio, he's creator of Forgotten Art-chitectures project, decayed places are not shot just with an usual limited documentary aspect, as many others do, but they are like painted fine art canvas aimed at aesthetics.
