Artwork Description

The Darkness of the soul

50.0 x 70.0 cm

The Darkness of the Soul is a photographic project born from a necessity: give shape to the pain. That deep feeling that can skim even the most improbable and protect parts of our soul. In these photos, the artist Teresa Bontà is searching for the din of the silence that burns in a stormy spirit. The sensation of stillness invades during the act of protect the feelings from sharp blades, victims of a love that now is a tormentor, a murderer. The blood gushes because of the indifference in the presence of the suffering. The frustrating scream that just asks to be supported to not falling down. A therapeutic walk directed to the awareness to don’t lose themselves even in front of the penetrating dark. Even the silence holds its breath.
