A ghost in blue ink: love, loss, and cyanotype chemistry in 4 hypnotic minutes.
"Fiore Mio" is a visual suggestion, without a beginning and an end. Absence and presence, what remains and what is lost between two people when their paths part. A video clip of Andrea Laszlo de Simone's song of the same name, made through the technique of cyanotype.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Cyanotype is a 19th-century photographic process using iron salts that produce Prussian blue images; Mancini hand-painted each frame.
The technique was originally used to reproduce engineering diagrams ('blueprints') — here repurposed to map the architecture of heartbreak.
