M77 Gallery presents “Look Afar”, a new exhibition project by Italian artist Chiara Dynys. It represents a new corpus of works, made using a range of media. It is the result of a long research study by the artist. Chiara Dynys has always been interested in the study of the liminal and metaphysical dimensions of reality. Her new technique is derived from a cosmic phenomenon, the aurora borealis.

Look Afar is the result of a physical and mental voyage in Sweden Lapland, performed by the artist last winter. For days, weeks, months, Chiara Dynys endured long vigils of observation during which she documented the natural phenomena that hallmark this magical land, and that fill the metaphysical sidereal landscape with unparalleled illumination, the Northern Lights, recorded in a period of particular intensity.
The results of these observations take the form of thousands of images, segments of a “fantastic power” capable of forging a link between man’s microcosm and the universal macrocosm, inducing observers to gaze into the distance: Look Afar, as in the exhibition’s title.
