Exploring urban landscapes through a precise and contemplative visual approach, Spaces in Between by Gabriele Basilico captures the often overlooked transitional areas within the cityscape. The photographs focus on the physical and metaphorical gaps—vacant lots, unoccupied spaces, and peripheral zones—that shape the rhythm and structure of urban environments.

The mood conveyed in these images is one of quiet introspection, emphasizing stillness and absence amidst the surrounding city activity. Basilico’s work invites viewers to consider the significance of these interstitial spaces as essential components of the urban fabric, challenging conventional perceptions of architectural completeness and urban order.

Published in 2022 and spanning 159 pages, this volume offers a sustained investigation into the nuanced relationship between built structures and their adjoining voids, maintaining a consistent focus on spatial ambiguity and urban morphology.
