Marco Manray introduces his first personal exhibition, "REPLICA",
for the opening of Overfoto Gallery who will open an exhibit space in Second Life.

Two series of photographies will be displayed: black and white landscapes from the series "Why is there something rather than nothing?", photographies taken in Second Life wild areas still untouched by man, where Manray roams, wearing Ansel Adams’ shoes in a metaphorical West, achieving hyperrealistic and abstract results at the same time; and the series "Replica", which gives the title to the exhibition, taken into an avatars’ clones illegal factory , with portraits of a crowd of clones that seems to walk towards us as a "Fourth Estate of Second Life." With “REPLICA”, Marco Manray Cadioli opens a new look on the world of Second Life, after the 2007 reports, published by various international magazines, such Libération, Elle, La Repubblica, and shortly after the book Io, Reporter in Second Life, recently published by Shake Edizioni from Milan, focused on his adventures as a net-reporter.
