Hidden Lights

GR gallery is proud to announce the opening on February 14th of Hidden Lights, a solo exhibition by Italian visual artist Geppy Pisanelli. His latest series emerges from both a narrative and compositional need to explore the dynamic interplay between nature and artifice. Specifically, the artist's interest was the visual formalization of works that contrast natural elements (like water beds, trees, mountains, and waterfalls) and artificial elements (such as minimal structures, shelter and artificial lighting). This juxtaposition highlights the relationship between nature and human-made artifice, placing artificial objects in unexpected natural settings.

These compositions trigger a sense of alienation both visually and intellectually, which is also reflected in the exhibition's title Hidden Lights, immediately presenting itself as an oxymoron: light, typically associated with visibility and illumination, is described as hidden, creating a contrast right in the title itself. These pieces generate a layered effect of visibility and obscurity, achieved by the artist through a carefully balanced pictorial composition of shapes, subjects, and content in relation to each other.
