Letizia Romanini - Rust Regrowth

- exhibition
Inspired by the mining basin of southern Luxembourg, this photographic series offers a situated perspective where industrial memory, long temporalities and dynamics of regeneration overlap. Based on a corpus of images devoted to wild plants often considered as "weeds," the work serves as a sensitive record of life forms that emerge in the interstices of landscapes transformed by extraction. The prints, articulating plant and mineral, use large format as a tool to shift our gaze: by reversing the scale, they invite slow attention and perceptual immersion. This shift in focus opens a critical space where human-environment relationships are reconfigured beyond a strictly anthropocentric view. Echoing the ideas of Donna Haraway, the project considers the body as a porous entity inseparable from its environment. The series therefore promotes a reading in terms of interdependence, where the landscape is no longer a backdrop, but a relational system, traversed by often invisible forms of resilience. At the crossroads of archive, inventory, and speculation, Rust Regrowth outlines the contours of an ecology tied to place, attentive to the persistence of life within territories marked by industrial history.
