Seven of the works for this show are matted analog photos where we find colored cutouts that appear in unexpected contexts surrounded by winery tools.

A shell, a diamond, a series of cardboard cutout cherries that allow the artist to rediscover the wonder of childhood. The project takes its name from one of these images: The “rosa sentinella” (“sentinel rose”).

There are also pages of documents where lists and shapes can be faintly discerned on light paper. Lastly, a video shows hands in action as they mime the action of pruning. We also see a print on a huge piece of fabric with the reproduction of negatives created by the artist.

We can imagine a sort of dance as we contemplate the blow-up and the video. The show ends with a copy of an artist’s book that features more than 40 images including photographs, lists, and illustrations.
