The setting for 'Looking Through Jurri's Eyes' is arguably (personal bias acknowledged), the finest café and ice cream parlour in Italy’s Veneto region. Located in Legnago, a town of some 25 000, Jurri, with its rectangular and porthole shaped windows, provides the perfect vantage point from which to observe the comings and goings of the town’s Saturday morning market. The market is not just somewhere to do the weekly shop, it’s also a place to spend time with family, meet up with friends and quietly contemplate the world. The series reveals something of the social and cultural changes Legnago has experienced in recent years as a result of migration and other demographic shifts. Aesthetically, it takes its cue from the work of Saul Leiter, the New York photographer renowned for his colour images of the city, many of which were shot through windows of all shapes and sizes, including portholes. As in Leiter’s canon, ‘Looking Through Yurri’s Eyes’, includes. black and white photographs, which add emotional depth and act as a visual metaphor for the polarisation and accompanying tensions arising from demographic change. The series is dedicated to Yurri and Marta, the creative and generous minds behind Jurri and to all those that appear within it.
