Jacopo Di Cera's 'Shapes / Forme Sotto la Stessa Luce' Exhibition in Milan Showcases Paralympic Athletes from Above

In Milan, Jacopo Di Cera showcases 'Shapes / Forme Sotto la Stessa Luce,' featuring 44 photographs of Paralympic athletes captured from a bird's-eye perspective, transforming their bodies into visual symbols while highlighting lines of movement and shadows. The narrative-free images establish a unified visual language centered on form, rhythm, and illumination. Uniform, intense lighting flattens the spatial dimensions, while shadows add depth and intricacy. This initiative is part of Procter & Gamble Italia’s 'Campioni Ogni Giorno' program, in partnership with the Comitato Paralimpico Italiano, aimed at fostering an inclusive sports culture. Additionally, a photographic book, created with the Istituto Poligrafico and the Zecca dello Stato Italiano, complements the exhibition's visual rigor, featuring a mix of images, details, and text. The exhibition emphasizes athletic movements, showcasing precision, discipline, and the interplay between body and space, with figures appearing suspended in ambiguous environments.
