Throughout its history, photography has undergone a series of revolutions. Today, photography is no longer the preserve of a small group of people, but has undergone a major democratization process, becoming accessible to everyone: each individual actively participates in the construction of contemporary visual culture, disseminating images in a relentless, ubiquitous, dizzying digital flow. Silvia Camporesi, an exceptional photographer, explores photography in its intricate and elusive mesh. Each chapter is a tribute to the depth that photography offers us in its most diverse forms; it is a journey that mixes reflections on personal experiences, history, quotes from authors considered fundamental, and anecdotes; it is a journey in which the only rule is respect for the complexity of photography, reiterating its status as a structured entity, as the title states, inspired by the famous verse from a poem by Gertrude Stein.
