Fatima Bianchi, OGGI CHE È DOMENICA, VI IMMAGINO TUTTI A CASA E VI SONO VICINO

Basement

The Brunate lighthouse on Lake Como illuminates the night. Without pausing, it lights up what is in the shadows to resume its cycle immediately, without judgement.
Its beam of light strikes the forest, reverberates in the water, dazzles cars on a paved road and illuminates a villa.
Inside this house, the members of a family are portrayed in their daily lives, captured for a moment by the eye of the camera. An everyday life like any other, but set in a precise moment: the time when the eldest son, Francesco, spent a year in prison and each of the family members had a correspondence with him.
Francesco is Fatima Bianchi’s older brother; the house in Brunate is the villa where the artist grew up.

Fatima Bianchi lives and works between Milan and Marseille.
