EROS

With “Eros" (2017), Guido Argentini develops further the story telling style he started to show in “Shades of a woman”. Guido employs a creative technique with the usage of diptychs: Every double page represents a single “art work” with a single title. The two juxtaposed images presented side by side: a photograph of a woman and an image of a still life or a landscape, are often exploring contrasts or complementary elements in terms of colors and or symbols. By pairing images together, Argentini encourages viewers to find deeper connections between the photographs and to reflect on the different facets of human sensuality and emotion. This pairing technique creates a narrative between the two images, allowing them to communicate with each other and leaving space to the imagination of the viewer.
