In his newest works, Euro Rotelli turns away from his preferred subject - the body, and delves deep into the theme of landscape. At first sight, these winter landscapes appear barren and desolate, but visual layers uncover a deeper meaning. As the rips in added layers of paper suggest, the works are collages of different techniques of developing the same motif. The works appear in shades of stark black and white, rich sepia and fading grey, and are framed by brushstrokes of emulsion, which show how masterfully Rotelli approaches photography. With these visual layers, the works also reveal multiple levels of interpretation and remind us that there is more than one way to view an image.
