The Dark City project takes a slightly different approach to conceptual photography. Francesco Romoliis combining two series – “Possible Worlds” and “Reality show”-somewhat opposite to one another, usingan analogue technique, using a Polaroid, and a digital technique, using image manipulation.
I like to address the issue of reality, questioning our own senses, working on the boundary between the real and the unreal, that dream-like area where nothing is as it seems, where certainties vanish and definitions change their meaning.
Dark City is disturbing, just as disturbing as losing touch with reality, when differences emerge quickly, points of reference collapse in on themselves, and the certainty of doubt is all that remains.
