This breathtaking contemporary conceptual color photography, stands as a definitive visual statement within the highly celebrated The Immaculate and Lullaby collections by contemporary artist Salvatore Arnone. Formulated as a twin-panel multi-piece installation printed on premium museum-grade archival pigment paper, the unique masterpiece showcases Arnone's mastery in editing a posteriori photos shot over a 7-year range to stress recurring dreamlike themes. The structured layout flows dynamically across two corresponding setups designed to map out contrast and formal balance: the first panel captures a single brown egg suspended weightlessly inside an immaculate pastel pink studio environment representing the protective bubble the author lives in, while the second panel balances this isolation with a powerful vertical profile of a naked black man staring forward, set against a dense, hyper-detailed vintage wallpaper matrix of blooming red and pink roses.
Immaculate closes the body of work started with Paranoia. This series is made of a single image (‘Egg’) that represents the bubble the author lives in, isolated from the external world.
Lullaby is the second chapter of a larger body of work that pushes further the themes and ideas explored in the series Paranoia. Again this collection of images was arranged ‘a posteriori’ with pictures shot over a range of 7 years stressing the constant interest of the artist for the same recurring topics.

Italian artist Salvatore Arnone lives and works in Paris since 2014. After a debut of career as an engineer, he moved into jewelry design and worked for different brands around the world for almost 10 years. Despite this immersion in the creative field, at some point he felt the need to dedicate himself solely to photography and focus on his own vision. In 2010 he got published for the first time on Vanity Fair Italia and over the years his work has been displayed on several magazines and exhibitions all over the world. From the age of 25, he began to experience progressive hearing loss due to genetic cellular degeneration that forced him to use hearing aids. The lack of one sense deeply affected his perception of the world around him and his social relationships pushing him to a slow but constant process of self isolation that is well visible in all his production.
