Christian Michele Michelsanti ‘They Seem Overexcited & at the same time strangely passive’
‘They Seem Overexcited & at the same time strangely passive’ is our first feature from Italian photographer, Christian Michele Michelsanti. Here is what he told us about his latest fascinating series…
“This photographic project is inspired by the film ‘Salo 120 Giornate di Sodoma’ by the Italian director Pier Paolo Pasolini, which it is also based on the book ‘The 120 Days of Sodom’, by the Marquis de Sade (1740-1814).
The sequence’s aim is to explore the function of the human body in space, approaching it from unconventional & unsettling angles, leaving room for deception & distortion, often with either no action, to produce an almost mechanical passivity, as an implicit form of fatalism.”
