Description from the seller
Blinded by the Light belongs to the Light series, a study of the self-portrait and the relationship between the visible and identity. The lamp lights the body but hides the face, turning it into a mask. The work thus reflects on the boundary between showing and hiding, between vulnerability and protection, presence and anonymity.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Digital photography, printed and signed in 2026.
Giclee fine art print produced on premium satin paper 270 g/m² with Epson UltraChrome HD pigment inks, chosen for color intensity, tonal depth, and long-term stability.
Overall print dimensions: 30 × 30 cm
Limited edition of 20 copies in this format. Each copy is hand-signed and numbered on the back.
The work is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, stamped and hand-signed by the artist, attestng provenance and belonging to the declared edition.
IMPORTANT SHIPMENT INFORMATION
The print is sold without frame and without passe-partout.
To ensure protection during transport, it is carefully rolled and shipped in a rigid tube. The print will not be delivered flat.
Any ambient or framed images are for illustrative purposes only. For the actual dimensions of the work, refer to the measurements indicated in the description.
Bio
Tatiana Cardellicchio is an Italian visual artist and photographer whose gaze draws on the light of Southern Italy, transformed into poetic matter. Her research investigates the relationship between body, identity, nature and gaze, focusing on how identity is shaped, masked and negotiated through aesthetic codes.
A graduate in Photography from the Italian Institute of Photography, she builds narratives suspended between aesthetics and awareness. Through self-portraiture and constructed scenes, she uses the body as subject and material, turning photography into a space of inquiry rather than mere representation.
Her work explores the tension between beauty and power, ornament and resistance, surface and depth. Flowers, fabrics, light, and symbolic objects recur as visual devices that appear decorative but reveal mechanisms of control, visibility and transformation. Her images invite slowness, listening and attention, questioning how bodies are seen, inhabited and understood.
In 2025 she was named Floral Artist of the Year 2025, with publication by Artist of the Year Award, and she received the IPFA Award 2025 – Awarded Solo Exhibition, with a solo show in Brazil in 2026. In 2026 she also received the First Prize at the Motif Collective Photo Contest – Reflection. In 2024 she received the Silver Medal at the Prix de la Photographie Paris in the Portrait/Self-Portrait category for the project Impacto.
Her works have been exhibited in international contexts, including ImageNation Paris, London and New York, as well as at festivals, galleries and museums such as Paratissima, the National Etruscan Museum of Villa Giulia, Medina Rome and the Christos Kapralos Museum in Greece. Her practice defines a coherent and recognizable poetics, moving between self-representation, emotional ecology and aesthetic identity.
