discordant photography

Artist

Born in La spezia in Italy (1984)
Lives and works in Berlin in Germany

In this age of rehashed motifs and overused signs, young photographer Emanuele Sturlese a.k.a. Discordant is showing with determination how can we find constantly expanding spaces.
With humble creativity and suggestive brilliance, the artist finds himself in tension between pictorial ravine and photographical and photographic datum.
Between figurative and still life.
Between the stasis of an industrial landscape and the aseptic aesthetics of bodies in motion.
Never decadent, never glossy, never , never pandering.
Ethereal and polished;
Disruptive and strong.
Politically out of line.
Politically incorrect, without rhetorics.
Through codes in free fall, towards a disciplined, rigorous candour.
