“With this project I want to create a visual journey through the history of the equestrian portrait, from ancient Greece to the present day. To do this I will make modified versions of some of the most representative works of art within this genre, but making a substantial change in each of them: The elimination of the horseman. These versions will be very similar both in technique and scale to the originals, except for the fact that in all of them the main character, the portrayed, is missing. With this project I want to reflect on power, its codes of representation and their permanence throughout history. These modified portraits have the vocation of perverting the original function of the original, thus turning the original propaganda images into altered versions where everything acquires a new meaning.”
