Artistic Practice and Themes

Giordano’s practice reflects deeply on architectural and landscape elements that shape and sometimes distort individual and collective perceptions of public space. Lately, he has focused on cityscapes that depict idealized landscapes as layered narratives. These narratives invite the viewer’s gaze to linger on each component. Each house and palace becomes a locus of encounter or an idea, expressed through its unique architectural features.

Fictional Cities as Dreamscapes

Together, these elements form an alphabet or archive that the gaze can explore, consult, or find refuge within. Giordano’s fictional cities act as dream catchers for the eye, serving as portals to remote, imagined lands. Through this, he invites viewers to engage with spaces that blur the lines between reality and imagination.
