“Visual Echoes” – Multimedia Photography Exhibition, Valletta, Malta
The multimedia photography exhibition “Visual Echoes” presents a new body of work created through the collaboration between visual artist Ana Šesto and sound artist Andrea Giordani. The project was developed during their residency in Malta in January 2025 as part of the Culture Moves Europe programme.
“Visual Echoes” explores the relationship between image and sound through a contemporary interdisciplinary approach, merging photography, music and sound design. At its core, the project presents a series of photographic works capturing Maltese landscapes, architecture, and everyday life, with a focus on spatial atmosphere and visual traces of time. The photographic works form the foundation of the exhibition, while the sound layer expands and transforms the visual narrative.
The sound component is developed by Andrea Giordani through original compositions, ambient recordings, and field sounds, creating a layered auditory environment in dialogue with the photographic works. Rather than functioning as an illustration of the images, the soundscape acts as an emotional and spatial extension, enhancing perception and immersion.
The project is additionally supported by the City of Zagreb.

„Visual Echoes” – multimedijalna fotografska izložba, Valletta, Malta
Multimedijalna fotografska izložba „Visual Echoes” predstavlja novi opus radova nastao suradnjom vizualne umjetnice Ane Šesto i zvučne umjetnice Andree Giordani. Projekt je razvijen tijekom njihove rezidencije na Malti u siječnju 2025. u sklopu programa Culture Moves Europe.
„Visual Echoes” istražuje odnos slike i zvuka suvremenim interdisciplinarnim pristupom koji spaja fotografiju, glazbu i dizajn zvuka. U središtu projekta je niz fotografskih radova koji bilježe malteške krajolike, arhitekturu i svakodnevni život, s naglaskom na atmosferu prostora i vizualne tragove vremena. Fotografije čine temelj izložbe, dok zvučni sloj proširuje i preobražava vizualni narativ.
Zvučnu komponentu razvija Andrea Giordani originalnim skladbama, ambijentalnim snimkama i zvukovima s terena, stvarajući slojevitu zvučnu okolinu u dijalogu s fotografijama. Zvučni krajolik ne funkcionira kao ilustracija slika, već kao emocionalno i prostorno proširenje koje pojačava doživljaj i uronjenost.
Projekt dodatno podupire Grad Zagreb.
