Where Eras Merge
We have almost arrived to the end of this beautiful and intense experience but our students still impress us with their incredible talent!
Today, we visited Centrale Montemartini, the first public plant in Rome for the production of electricity, now the second exhibition center of the Capitoline Museums, an extraordinary example of the conversion of an industrial archeology building into a museum. In this fascinating environment, they had the opportunity to partecipate in a photography workshop, run by our professional photographer Stefano, who guided our students to explore the secrets of his art. They learned about the importance of lines, perspective, dynamics, and contrast in highlighting the subjects represented and creating a balanced composition. Through the combination of Roman statues within an industrial setting, they have created amazing artworks full of their unique perspectives.
We invite you to admire these fascinating photographs in our gallery!
