Armando Tinnirello's Shaman Series Explores the Sacred at Festival della Fotografia Etica in Lodi
On Saturday, October 3, at Good Food Concept in Lodi, Armando Tinnirello showcases his Shaman Series as part of the Festival della Fotografia Etica, Circuito OFF. This project delves into the remnants of imagery in a mystery-lacking world, intertwining photography with painting and symbolism. Tinnirello's portraits transition from documentary to visionary, reflecting on the modern-day disappearance of the sacred. Drawing inspiration from the myth of the veil of Isis, the series aims to reintroduce mystery. By using masks to alter identity, it connects Primitivism with avant-garde art. Tinnirello’s work emphasizes presence over identity, encouraging a gaze that goes beyond the visible and inviting exploration into realms beyond sight.
