In this evocative study, Artioli's camera becomes a time machine, blurring the boundaries between ancient craftsmanship and contemporary vision. The deliberate motion creates layers of translucency that suggest the living body beneath the stone—a visual metaphor for history's persistent presence. The resulting image hovers between photography and painting, offering viewers a meditative encounter with classical beauty.
 
Touching the skin of the past is an extraordinary collection of Roman Statues captured with the ICM technique in order to make the marble skin like a truly human body. 'Touching the skin of the past I can feel the blood flow under the marble. Feel the warmth under the cold. And history rises up with a breath of lust'.
 
Collectors seeking photography that transcends traditional boundaries will find exceptional value in this archival piece. The Art Design Project in Miami Beach presents this work as part of Artioli's critically acclaimed series, each print certified and numbered to preserve its collectible status and artistic integrity.
