FORTUNA

Fortuna documents a fireworks session carried out by Alessandro Dandini de Sylva in his studio as part of the programme Scegliere una maniera felice (Paese fortuna, December 2023). The action belonged to a series of interventions conceived together with José Angelino, Marco Emmanuele, Luca Grechi, and Diego Miguel Mirabella to bid farewell to the spaces of the former wool mill on Via di Pietralata in Rome, inhabited and transformed over more than a decade of shared work. In these photographs, a real event opens onto a symbolic dimension, where construction and truth coincide. The book builds a sequence suspended between document and abstraction, accompanied by a text by Domingo Milella.
