Book description:Sculpture/Printer_Office, the first book by Matteo Cremonesi, explores the formal and aesthetic potentialities intrinsic to an object belonging to our daily contemporary habitat. The subject of this last series, a classic Ricoh printer photographed for six months consecutively, is analysed in a cycle of forty-three shots focusing on the repetition of formal close-ups, details and profiles. Following a rhythmical and compositional sequence, the images are the result of a long-time interaction with the element, whose surface - as a sensitive skin - is the place where the gaze opens to encounter and contemplate.
