Martina Alice Tolotti is a Berlin based architect and photographer born in Milan. She has studied at Politecnico di Milano in Italy, at Bauhaus Universität in Germany and at University of Cape Town in South Africa. Photography during my studies in architecture emerged from a need of expansion and as an analytical tool to distill reality. I'm aware of being a fragile and transient presence, and therefore, I like to represent surfaces and landscapes that are mostly entangled within different eras. Observing my individual time perception in relation with the narrative of the earth on which I live, is a practice that helps me reconcile the living in a time of liquid contemporaneity and space contamination. As an act of repair, I reconnect with the past and evolution of our planet; my camera becomes a story telling device that creates fictional landscapes, inviting the observer to join a time travel through the evidences of this process. I like images because they can hold memories in different scales at the same time, record the state of matter, and narrate the mutations within the identity of a landscape.
