Puglia

Puglia appears twice within the same image. On the ground, the city is almost consumed by white, its buildings losing substance as they approach disappearance. Above it, the same place reappears, suspended in the sky as a darker and more persistent presence. The duplication does not establish which version is real. The city below may be vanishing, while the city above survives as memory; or the suspended city may belong to another time occupying the same space. What should be a single place is divided into two simultaneous states. As the physical city becomes less certain, its second image gains weight. The work does not describe a journey from one world to another, but a coexistence that should not be possible. Puglia remains recognizable, yet its location is no longer secure. Place has separated from geography, leaving two versions of the same city suspended between presence, disappearance, and time itself.
