Portraits of Inheritance
This gallery is the heart of Chronogenics. Each triptych reveals a story made of resemblance and divergence, memory and transformation. At the center, the fusion—where a parent and child merge into a single, liminal face. On either side, individual portraits that reclaim autonomy but speak of an unbreakable link.
These images are not about likeness alone. They are about what remains. The echoes of a smile. The texture of silence between generations. The invisible threads that bind us to those who came before—and to those who will come after.
You are invited to observe, compare, reflect. What do we carry within us? What, of ourselves, will remain?



All works are printed in 50x70 cm format on Hahnemühle Bamboo FineArt paper, enhancing the organic depth of the portraits and the emotional nuance of each face.





Franco, Clelia, Francesco, Luna and Noemi: Father, son, daughter and nephews.
