I will be presenting a unique collaboration with multimedia artist Mattia Casalegno of my ongoing project in Sardinia.

Below few words by the gallerist Alaina Simone.

" This video work, a collaboration between award-winning photographer Salvatore Di Gregorio and multimedia artist Mattia Casalegno, shed a light on the rich and original carnival practices of the Mamutzones of Samugheo in the Italian island of Sardinia, where millenary traditions are still alive these days.


This collaborative project is a continuation of Salvatore Di Gregorio’s artistic investigation on the rituals and meanings of the Sardinian carnival, which the photographer started in 2018. The video tryptic, featuring three key figures of the Mamutzones of Samugheo, was shot in location in Sardinia and subsequently digitally reinterpreted by Mattia Casalegno through a custom-made algorithm of image
synthesis.

In the tryptic the three figures engage in a hypnotic dance of sound and movements leaning towards abstraction. The bodies of the performers gradually vanish in a fluid cloud of pure movement, almost like ghosts from a distant past. This dance between the figurative and the ethereal, body and animal, is a metaphor for the ritualistic transformation and interconnectedness of the human condition that transcend borders and cultures"
