Cozy Threshold

Riccardo Fasana – Cozy Threshold

Cozy Threshold is a collection of digital photo collages which takes into exam spaces of transience within the domestic environment. In order to question the gaze which usually inhabits these interior spaces in the course of one’s everyday routine, the images included in the project present visible distortions which reveal the collage technique employed in their creation. As the layered nature of these digital reconstruction of actual spaces gradually unfolds in front of the viewer’s eyes, the gap between what is being observed and what might have been initially recognized becomes clearer. Through this work, viewers are therefore invited to reflect on the space in which these images exist by engaging in a detailed observation of the stage of everyday life.

WORKSHOP - CGI WITH AREA OF WORK – 2025

with Area Of Work

The Computer-Generated Imagery (CGI) Workshop is an introduction to 3D creation software that allows you to create images with photographic qualities that are not photographs.  This workshop centers on the theme of “Minimal,” inviting students to explore the creative and technical foundations of contemporary CGI image-making.  It emphasizes materiality and the expressive impact of reduction. Every form, light, and texture has a specific role, negative space guides the emotional tone, and fine details unify the composition.

Daniel Martinez – A River Has No Shore

by Daniel Martinez

Flowing from an Alpine glacier to the Mediterranean Sea, the Rhône River runs through ice caves, forests, cities and industrial sites. It sustains ecosystems, defines geographies and connects cultures across space and time. However, the boundless flux of the world’s waters today faces increasing stories of tragedy and collapse. Climate change doesn’t manifest only on a material level but also overwhelms the emotional dimension of human life. Today, the psychological toll of environmental crisis amplifies states of eco-anxiety and solastalgia, triggered by lived experiences, mediated imagery and narratives of apocalyptic breakdown. A River Has No Shore reflects on the distress caused by climate change and its representation by looking at the water along the Rhône River in its endless forms.

Doyoung Kim – Flattened Roughness

by Doyoung Kim

The work Flattened Roughness explores war image consumption and resulting guilt. The photographer collects and prints images of death then lick and absorb them physically, confronting the emotional and physical distance created by media. Suicide drones’ cameras constantly calculate distance to humans for destruction. In this process, the distance between humans is forgotten. To overcome this distance, he brings the images into my body. This act, where intimacy and brutality coexist, transforms voyeurism into mourning and care, confronting my lost humanity. Through sensory performance, he bridges the gap between himself and mediated death, exploring the clash of dulled emotion and sensation. This confessional, physically exhausting work explores alternative sensory approaches for the recovery of broken humanity.
