Humanoids: Portraits of Robots
Francesco Amorosino
Series description

There is a technology that will soon be part of our lives, yet most of us know little about it: humanoid robots. These devices are already present in limited contexts, such as museums, where they serve as guides, or factories. Experts, however, are betting that they will soon be prevalent in our homes. This photographic project utilises traditional portrait-photography techniques to highlight their human-like qualities, rather than portraying them as objects, with a solid black background alluding to the mystery surrounding this new technology.
