From Dec. 23, 2022 to June 4, 2023, the exhibition Sounds of silence by South Korean photographer Sue Park, a multiple Photo Awards winner and director of Shatto Gallery in Los Angeles, will be on display at the Palazzo del Duca in Senigallia. Organized by the Municipality of Senigallia and curated by Lorenzo Uccellini, the exhibition is sponsored by the Leopoldo Uccellini Foundation and supported by the Marche Region as part of the Senigallia City of Photography project.
One hundred photographs from two of his collections, Sue Park Photography and Monovision, dedicated in particular to the representation of the beauty of nature, will be on display. Places and vistas captured in Asia, Europe and the Americas that evoke a sense of wonder and mysticism. A tour of the world from east to west, taken by the photographer, in which she recounts the beauty she has experienced and photographed. Hers is a nature photography, in which post production is kept to a minimum; in the images she also recounts herself and her own experiences, which awaken sensations and memories: the coldness of the lands of Hokkaido, the magic of the light breeze in the Tuscan valleys, the distant litany of Malaysian fishermen, the scent of incense, the taste of salt filling the storm-stricken coastline, and the longing for a spot of black in an expanse of white. Sue Park’s shots communicate the simplicity and spontaneity of nature, making the viewer participate.
“Sue Park describes herself as a seeker of beauty, and Nature, in its most varied manifestations, represents her treasure map,” writes curator Lorenzo Uccellini. “Whether they are boundless landscapes or tiny details ’stolen’ from the magics of light and shadow or forms abstracted from the overall context, Sue’s gaze is that of a passionate lover who transcends the contingency of the visible, recording in photographic shots instants that tell the eternal stories of trees or the quiet sounds of the countless living creatures that populate the scenery. And we even seem to be listening to those silences and ancient stories, each one with its own experience immersed between personal memory and collective unconscious, as only fairy tales can offer.”
Hours: Thursday through Sunday from 3 to 8 p.m. Closed Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
