Carla Sutera Sardo - Stripes II

In Stripes, the language of photography meets optical illusion in a rigorous and surprising composition. The yellow and white stripes of the chair and of the outfit become the through line of an image in which the body dissolves into geometry, generating an impossible figure that suspends any spatial reference.

The calm of the sea and the horizon perfectly steady provide a counterpoint to a visual construction that disorients and provokes curiosity. The symmetry, the balance of forms, and the chromatic clarity guide the eye toward a continuous play of interpretation: what seems immediately legible reveals, upon closer inspection, a sophisticated perceptual illusion.

Between irony, minimalism, and contemporary surrealism, Stripes reflects on the relationship between body, landscape, and representation, transforming a daily gesture into an iconic and timeless image.
