Being a woman is what distinguishes a woman in every time and place.
In this photographic series entitled "Deniers" I wanted to represent my idea of the modern woman, who is also fragmented and divided, even faceless in these shots, but nevertheless reveals her many faces, one for every moment of her everyday life, for every role that today's society entrusts her with.
Today there are so many tasks and missions required of women but she always manages to adapt and amalgamate chameleonically with the space around her.
Shapes become geometry, color becomes material, harmony becomes beuty.
Gabriele Gentile was born in 1986 in Italy where he completed his studies in the humanities and communication fields.He approaches digital photography in his thirties fascinated by its “magical power”,unique in making a moment eternal. Time is the focus of his research,the nostalgic time of the past from which to resurrect ancient buildings today in decay and the time of the future,projected into minimal abstract visions of modern architecture. Forms,lines:space.Fundamental even as empty space.
Colour is another keyword in his works,a subject in and of itself,essential element of his alphabet.
