A series of photographs that shift attention to the use of images. What are images? Sometimes like things we use them without awareness. Understanding falls behind. We believe we can speak easily today through images, but we are often “spoken” by images. “Mediated” to use the language of the title. They talk about us much more than we think. From this point of view, Noris Cocci recognizes strength in images. It’s a power that unhinges. And therefore, a potentiality for action. And he is right when he writes that images can provide ideas for reconsidering one’s identity as an individual or community member. So we are faced with images that interrogate and “agitate” the gaze, or rather the observer’s thought, like chemicals that can trigger a reaction. At least they try. When addressed to the present dramas, an intention to reveal human tragedy proves to be militant, participatory—almost politic.
