Barbara Pau
Graduated in Architectural Engineering, she continued her professional
development with a PhD in Architecture / Technologies for the Conservation of
Architectural and Environmental Heritage (UNICA) and a Master in Landscape
Architecture (UPC / Barcelona).
Post-graduate researches, aimed at decoding the invariants of architecture and
landscape - in the regional and Mediterranean context - today find expression in
photographic representation.
Photography becomes an instrument of critical reading of the landscape understood
as a palimpsest: in which the overwriting and superimposition of signs and
stratifications narrate the complexity and the short and long-term history of the
territory.
A visual study on the chronosystems that give structure to places, in the continuous
diachronic / synchronic reading of material and immaterial permanence. In the
study of the landscape, the eye focuses on the signs that give access to the historical
understanding of a place, to its sudden anthropological or climatic transformations,
making them a design tool.
In the architectural spaces, attention focuses on the details, the use of materials, the
thresholds, the continuous dialectic between shadow and light.

Some works have been displayed in the exhibition as an invited photographer at
SYA 2018, Castello di San Michele - Cagliari, at the OPEN 2018 and 2019 events and
at the Biennale dello Spazio Pubblico, Rome, 2015.

In November 2020, a photographic miniseries will be published in the national
magazine ArtApp and for January 2021, the Documentary Oli & Salt in the
International Magazine DocuMagazine.
