Interview for “Dark Whispers”

On June 27, 2024 Rifugio Digitale inaugurated the exhibition “Dark Whispers” of the Australian photographer Morganna Magee, which represents the fifth stage of the exhibition cycle dedicated to contemporary photography Homecoming, conceived by Irene Alison and curated by Irene Alison and Paolo Cagnacci. The event is organized in collaboration with Forma Edizioni and the Associazione Infoto and thanks to the support of Gruppo AF and Banca Ifigest.      —      “Nature is all that matters to me. The rest of the world is a fiction created by human beings for their own amusement, in which I have never felt at peace. I’m much happier day-dreaming under a tree than in any other place”. It is in nature, in the silence broken only by the myriad rustling whispers of the Australian bush in the dawn’s early light, that Morganna Magee finds her inspiration. Originally from Melbourne the Australian artist, for her first personal exhibition in Italy, brings to Rifugio Digiatale a show – entitled Dark Whispers, curated by Irene Alison and Paolo Cagnacci – including examples of material from her most recent projects as well as new material produced exclusively for the exhibition, in an itinerary that takes the viewer into the dark heart of the forest, in search of an ancestral, indomitable spirit.
