Sandra Cattaneo Adorno's latest body of work offers a meditation on perception: how we experience time, memory, connection, and the boundaries between reality and illusion. "Reflection, refractions, and distortions abound, transforming the external world into a metaphor of the mind," Cattaneo Adorno explains. Inspired by the memory of brightly colored, overlapping metal plates on a printing press, known as scarti or "scraps," Cattaneo Adorno revisited her archives and began layering images during the pandemic. Scarti di Tempo in Italian can mean either "time discrepancy" or "lag time".
