This work is the result of a previous project, the triptych Tempo, for which I cut out images from 19th and 20th century books and magazines.
The cut-outs created holes and gaps in the pages. Without making any selection, I simply photographed the pages with their empty spaces, which reveal what is on the page underneath in a completely random way.

One of the most interesting aspects of Pasquale Polidori’s editorial project is the infinite compositional combinations of the pages. The newspaper can be taken apart and displayed in a thousand different ways, creating unexpected associations between the images and different configurations in the overall composition, as can be seen from some examples.
