Galleria Valentina Bonomo in Rome presents a solo exhibition by Rä di Martino, who won the Premio Acacia 2018. The show explores collective memory through manipulated archival photographs, including works like Open Trees, Fotocascate, and Piper. Di Martino cuts, overlaps, and re-photographs documents to create new narratives in black and white, highlighting the ambiguity of photographic truth. Peter Benson Miller of the American Academy in Rome notes that her traditional methods are not constraints but multifaceted tools.
