Olga Cafiero’s photographic projects, which sit on the border between art and science, draw inspiration from scientific imagery and its protocols. Rather than confirming a truth, they offer multiple, subjective perspectives. Through a practice combining methodical investigation and imaginative projection, Cafiero explores the tensions between the visible and invisible, and between scientific rigour and poetic wonder.
Each distinct series forms part of this approach, questioning the materiality of images and their ability to translate complex phenomena into visual experiences. Dialogue emerges between nature, technology, and history, revealing hidden narratives and imperceptible details.
Fascinated by the elusive, Olga Cafiero blurs the boundary between science and poetry. Her images translate complex phenomena into visual experiences, revealing the delicate balance between method and imagination. While representing the world in all its complexity may be a futile endeavour, the full meaning of her approach lies in this very quest.
