ELLEN DE is where the revolution dies to become tradition.

NEO.BRUTALISM

Ellen De’s photographs do not represent urban nor industrial landscapes, but rather a social state of mind.

armour

Making the abstract concrete.

“It’s not only the living who are killed in the war”

-Isaac Asimov

nostalgia

Today is tomorrow’s nostalgia. Bittersweet. The happiness of being sad.

post.constructivism

Renouncing to colour as pictorial element: colour is the graphical and idealised texture of objects, a shallow and external impression, an accident that has nothing in common with the object’s most inherent essence.

denial

"Those who act under constraint remain under the impression that they are acting on their own initiative. The victim of mind-manipulation does not know that he is a victim. To him the walls of his prison are invisible, and he believes himself to be free"

- Aldous Huxley

becoming strangers

A collaborative project by Manfredi Caracciolo and Ellen De.

dirt

A bath tube, a body, and an urge to wash off the dirt.
