Piz Zupò
Veil of Light
About the work
Piz Zupò stands silent and dignified. At almost 4,000 metres above sea level, it embodies the power of the Alpine summits . The work captures a privileged moment when the mountain emerges from an ocean of clouds. This sea of mist, light and ephemeral, contrasts with the giant's sharp ridge and steep flanks. The play of light and shadow brings out every detail with striking finesse. The edge, particularly sharp and fine, seems to cut elegantly through the clouds, tracing a boundary between two worlds.
Faced with this black-and-white photograph of Piz Zupò, we are naturally drawn towards introspection. We are invited to deep contemplation. The mountain, a symbol of strength and immutability, reveals here an altogether different, almost fragile beauty in its dialogue with the elements.
Through this work, I wish to convey to you the pure emotion I feel when I witness this spectacle. The providential flash of light that furtively illuminates the summit reminds us of the fleeting nature's precious moments. It teaches us the importance of being attentive to these rare moments, these flashes of eternity. Listening to the mountains and the rhythm of the winds, I waited for a spark to emerge from the highest summits in the Alps. Until the magic happened. May this photograph be for you an invitation to fully grasp every moment when nature, in its infinite wisdom, chooses to reveal its most secret and subtle beauty.
