Lamberto Teotino deals with visual arts, his investigation develops mainly on the analysis and nature of the image, examining its perceptual mechanisms. The first experiments touched on painting, sculpture and traditional photography, but in advancing his professional career, Teotino worked to overcome the canons of mere visual documentation, looking for new possibilities, unexplored and unexpected, arriving at the perceptive alteration of the image and to video art. Through careful, thoughtful, methodical study, not without a dose of randomness and magic, the artist achieves in his works a balance between reality, made of suggestions, sounds, colors, smells, sensations, emotions, and illusions, the paradoxes, ambiguities, created by the philosophical, mathematical, scientific elements.
The use of photography, the technical conceptual interventions on archival images, the philosophical approaches of the image in the form of visual-installation communication represent the artist’s modus operandi, which seeks the dissemination of meaning, paradox, the conditions of perceptual alteration and a new conceptual design, as a sort of metaphysical shift, a deviation. It is an archive work, the one carried out by Lamberto Teotino, in search of photographs, works of art, historical testimonies, but it is also a work of continuous observation of the world around us, of references drawn from real life, from passions, from music, from cinema.
