Old cars Miami 06bn., 2017

Luca Artioli  

This artwork captures the timeless elegance of a classic car, focused on the dichotomy between the sleek, gleaming body and the iconic whitewall tire. The composition is a masterful study in contrast, with the bold black curve of the vehicle accentuated by a sharp, streamlined chrome strip. The whitewall tire serves as a nostalgic focal point, evoking an era of automotive sophistication and craftsmanship. The play of light and shadow emphasizes the car's graceful lines, while the dirt road beneath adds an earthiness that grounds the image. This piece not only celebrates the artistry of vintage automobiles but also invites the viewer to ponder the intersection of design and function. It resonates with a sense of nostalgia, capturing an era where style was paramount, making it a captivating and evocative portrayal of automotive heritage.

From the series "Miami Skin" Edition of 5. Miami Skin is one of the few “Still photo” project realized only in Black and White. It’s not a traditional collection of photos about the architecture of Miami and Miami Beach. It’s rather a quick journey between its own skin from the Art Deco District to the modern skyline of our days. Stripes, circles, squares, reflections show only some details of important buildings but they all have the power to arise emotions and unexpected shapes and volumes inside us. A final touch is reserved for nature skin from the ocean to the tropical vegetation. You need now to make an effort of imagination to discover and compose all pictures and eventually frame it in your own mind.
