Background information
"Piergiorgio CASOTTI was born in a small town in northern Italy. He describes his relationship with the mountains as 'the absence of words… an absence that leaves us untouched by sound-interference and the ‘white-noise’ of human society.'
Content
In this self-published photo volume 'Where Does The White Go', Piergiorgio CASOTTI pays tribute to the silence of the mountains with a series of images of ski villages and their surroundings, abandoned during the warm season. While a few patches of dirty snow still cling to the slopes, the parking areas and roads are empty, the condos devoid of life, the seasonal incessant motion paused until the snow comes again. The harsh elements that eternally shape the mountain likewise seem dormant." (distributor's note)
