Mimeses North: Ogni giorno in piu - New work from Georgia

About Mimeses North

Mimeses North is a collective of Northern, fine art
photographers who have come together in order to enhance individual interpretations
of our relationships with the world in which we live, exploring relationships of
fellow humans, animals, interactions with our landscape, across to all things
‘other’.

Mimeses North provides mutual support and critique
along with opportunities for specific collaborations, mounting group
exhibitions on their core theme.

In an increasingly competitive art world, the
collective is a way of opening and maintaining the conversation between artists
and an art loving public. By combining insights and debate with defined
collaboration in work, Mimeses North intends that their combined output will
always add up to more than the sum of parts.

Ogni giorno in piu - New work from Georgia

Emanuela Marenz

Every new day. The aspect of contemporary Georgia is a photographic book that represents the Georgian reality during this very delicate shift from the Soviet past to a future that possibly looks towards the Occidental world.

“I had been in Georgia for 70 days and I had the chance to visit almost every corner of the country, from Svaneti mountains, to the maritime city of Batumi, till the border with Azerbaijan. These 70 days had been very intense and let me get close to Georgians and their culture in a profound and sincere way” says the photographer, who developed this project in collaboration with the charity Caritas Georgia and the European Cultural Foundation.

Along with the photographs, the book is completed with abstracts of interviews and descriptive captions. Thanks to this structure the viewer receives a social portrait of great humanity thanks to an intimate approach that is very close to the people that tell their story.

Every new day. The aspect of contemporary Georgia is going to be part of Padova Photography Festival with an exhibition from 9^th to 22^nd March and the presentation of the book on 18^th March. More info on the website of the Festival.
