Skyscrapers

Artworks / Skyscrapers

Urban landscapes, interpreted as a metaphor of contemporaneity and projected towards the sky in the form of skyscrapers in endless acceleration.
Remote locations, ultra modern but lost in time, majestic and dynamic structures, animated by internal energy, and spiritual instinct.
These are existing buildings, seen by the artist, in her travels, but also hard to recognise- as they are completely transformed in this new personal vision.
Far from representing architectural works faithfully and realistically, Luisa Longo unravels them with a personal code making them animated and dynamic, as if light and organza reflections gave them a new energy.
Light touches the silhouette of a skyscraper through the subtle weave of the cloth; it fills it with vivid reflections in an atmosphere suspended in time.
