Malena Mazza , LOVE IN THE TIME OF TINDER

I love you, I love you, I miss you, I think of you, I will always love you, I'm fine with you,
I like you, I want you, I like looking at you, I love you, I don't want to lose you,
Good morning love, I will never forget you, I wish you were here, I would like to kiss you,
You are all that, Thank you my love, You drive me crazy, Come away with me,
Let's make love together ..........
Words devoid of their meaning, chase each other on social networks. Women equally emptied, with no more references or contents. The web that, in its Social variations, we compulsively consult several times a day, has become the largest public square to celebrate a meeting, a memory where we can share our private experiences.
Today, dating apps often look more like a beauty contest, where only the most attractive people get an answer, thus increasing the sense of low self-esteem and social isolation of those who decide to get involved for once. While Tinder and dating apps help to meet people outside the usual circle of friends, on the other hand they have dehumanized the human being, who becomes an object to choose from a catalog of images.
The death of the soul, the emptiness of contemporaneity where there is no risk of anything, the hidden fears and sufferings, the non-places of the virtual. The dehumanization. Are technology and speed leading us to the abyss, or is it just a stage on a journey to a new humanity?
Together, in the near future, will we live a second life in virtual reality? Life and death become social in an example of humanism capable of dealing with the digital age. Today more than ever, can digital give us an opportunity to rethink life and death in a revolutionized perspective?
In addition to offering a key to the project, these are some of the key questions that can be read in the eyes and gestures of each of the women depicted and that Malena Mazza, while still with her strong aesthetic sense and her sometimes ironic vein , yes and there. It being understood that describing a visual artistic expression in words always becomes a very personal completion of what you see, but this can and must then be interpreted by different gazes and sensibilities from person to person. Each of us will then draw their own considerations.
Malena Mazza was born in Bologna, and moved to Milan to attend film school.
He began his professional career as assistant director at Production House Film 77 in Milan, and soon became First Assistant for internationally renowned directors such as the Taviani brothers, Michelangelo Antonioni, Maurizio Zaccaro, Giancarlo Soldi, Jerad de Batista, Jacques Venait, Robert Fraisse (Academy Nomination for Best Photography Award for “L'Amant”) and many others.
Malena's photography has been shown in exhibitions at the Venice Biennale, the Milan Triennale and the Louvre in Paris, and on the Jumbotron in Time Square in New York City in 2014. She has presented her works on several occasions around the world in only exhibits and published several books on a variety of photography-related topics.
His works are permanently exhibited in museums and public places and are owned by important art collectors from all over the world. Between 2002 and 2015 he held more than 50 solo exhibitions and countless group exhibitions. Every year since 2005 his works have been sold at Sotheby's auction.
