“Reflection of reflections.. the sunglasses compliment the shirt nicely! Very sleek, very demure. I like the balance of the image.”

“I keep reminding myself that I have never seen this image before, and yet I feel that I have, or, more accurately, I sense that aspects of the image pre-existed in my imagination, or memory banks, or foggy yearnings. To some degree, this reflects Macri’s uncanny ability to draw out the experiences of his viewers without knowing specifically what they are. We are inundated with images in the digital world, share them across kilometres and time zones, store them in the synapses of our brains, and often forget what it is that we have once known. We no longer see them until an artist makes them visible for us. Macri becomes an artist of recovery, taking from the neglected or the forgotten, adapting from the old to create something new, startling in its composition, artfully constructed with images, patterns and motifs derived from general culture, social anxieties and personal experiences. He transmutes dross into gold.”
~ Kenneth Radu (Let there be Gold: Three Portraits by Adamo Macri)

“An oblivious stare waiting for recourse, with malevolent lips. To surge your heart.”
