Pia Clodi
Waiting At The Bar - Still Life Black and White Film Photographic Print Framed

About the Item

Waiting At The Bar - Still Life Black and White Photographic Print Framed Like many of Pia Clodi’s works, this black and white photograph evokes a human presence, even when one cannot be seen. The still and distorted glimpse into a quiet space, mirrors back on the viewer, asking them, what exactly it is they are waiting for? The scene, almost romantic and yet mysterious in nature invites inquisition. This poetic experience can be found throughout the photographic articulation of Pia Clodi, whose works continuously conjure moments of contemplation, or opportunities to stop and slow down. Taken on Polaroid, the process by which this photograph was originally created is reminiscent of much slower and earlier practices in photography, where precision can’t be guaranteed, but the surprise and fragility of what may appear on paper post-development is increasingly alluring to a contemporary photographer like Pia, who searches for unpredictability and chance moments in her life. This photograph is offered in the form of a limited edition print (one of 10 + the original Polaroid). Presented in a shadow gap frame. Pia Clodi’s works encompass moments and mementos from her countless walks through cities as well as naturescapes. These chances, between or during photographic assignments, to illuminate an object, a person or an instance, were quietly collected by Pia Clodi, on her SX70 Polaroid camera. An incredibly poetic practice, of passively capturing calmness and sensuality within otherwise lacklustre material and forms, enables Clodi to inject beauty in the everyday, and invoke nostalgia for quieter and slower experiences. Inspired by processes of creation, and early practices within photography, from the likes of Anna Atkins, Eugene Atget, William Fox Talbot and Louis Daguerre. Clodi’s work focuses on form and traces of life, over realism - whilst capturing stillness even through movement.
