This photograph is part of the 11-21 project (from the New Wave chapter). Sometimes photography moves the unseen, a fracture, a hiatus. Then the light will have to be the art of lucidity and the enormous effort will be to find a new compositional logic. Here, photography drowns its steps in the restlessness of a contrary verb, as in the restlessness of sleep insomnia burns. It is a chapter to remember, not the photographs taken but those missed.

Emme Divi, Marcella Dalla Valle's stage name, is a movement photographer and her works are characterised by a conceptual and abstract approach to human beings and the landscapes around them. She was born in 1971 in Thiene in the province of Vicenza. She graduated in Modern Literature at the State University of Milan.The world of poetry will be the keynote for the start of her photographic activity that will lead her, as a self-taught photographer, to consolidate the technical preparation to tackle her first exhibitions and contests at national and international level.
