Pia Clodi
Cloud Study I - Large Scale Contemporary Landscape Art Photography

2019

About the Item

Cloud Study I - 21st Century Contemporary Photographic Print Framed Cloud Study I, like many of Pia’s works, evokes quiet contemplation – in this instance, through a cloud study. For some, this work may conjure nostalgia for simpler times, or memories of childhood, when hours could be spent playing under the clouds and gazing at the forms and characters that could be found within them. This work equally could recall watercolour studies, not unlike that of JMW Turner’s. With the blurry consistency of the analog photograph imitating delicate strokes of paint. 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.
