In Coppia, (Italian: “Couple”), diaristic entries offer insight into the remains of a romance put to rest. A sense of deficiency pervades the series where backgrounds are blank and subjects are reduced to minimal silhouettes. However, a range of scenes study, reminisce over and probe the nuances of the “couple”. The series title rejects the stigma typically associated with the desire for connection and partnership. In this way, the works represent a subliminal passage in the experience of grief.
