The peculiar nuances of light and shade, with their gradations of transparency, express something other than manual painting or graphic art can convey.” - Abstract Pictures on Film. Introduction by Franz Roh . In 1704 the English philosopher, physicist and mathematician Isaac Newton published for the first time Opticks. With the same spirit of investigation and research, we have started 'Opticks' which is neither a series, nor a specific and delimited portion of work. In Opticks, we follow our initial approach of using photography to investigate the ‘structure of reality’, ‘the why of things’. As Berenice Abbott once stated: to use photography as “the friendly interpreter of science”. The difference with our previous series is that in this case we investigate the components of Nature which are inaccessible and unviewable, except by means of experiments which render them visible.
