“Florence Di Benedetto has total control of both the photographic and pictorial aspects and this allows her to obtain a dialectical synthesis of the two expressiveness in her works. Although photography is the starting point, it is the pictorial gesture that then intervenes decisively. The color illuminates only some limited areas and in this way the white and black acquire a greater fluidity, exalting themselves in a relationship between fullness and emptiness that makes the image acquire a sense of depth that is both visual and symbolic because it does not stop the 'image but puts it in a context where it acquires an accentuated dynamism.” – Roberto Mutti, historian and critic of photography
