Statement
El placer esta en el aire Intervened photograph of Ernesto Carozzo A. This new series by photographer Ernesto Carozzo explores infinity and its possibilities. Starts from a photographic record of the sky; colors and gradients. These images are printed on cotton paper and intervened with acrylic paint to generate a body of work that shows us his idea of universe and how everything is connected in it through the air. Air element that he uses as colored canvases, mostly cerulean, representing with the intervention on one hand the visible, such as a starry sky, until leading us to representations of the invisible as those threads that connect everything in our daily life.
