Portraits from the Future

Echoes of a Time Unborn
Visions Across Time
Portraits from the Future is Maicol Borghetti’s meditative exploration of humanity’s temporal horizon, captured in luminous photographs printed on plexiglass. Rooted in his early work with photography and 3D design in the 2000s, this series distills the speculative essence of Mythos & Protos into a singular, linear journey along the axis of time. Where bronze sculptures conjure relics of distant worlds, these portraits anchor us in a future both intimate and inevitable, asking: What will humanity become?
A Human Continuum
Each image is a synthetic reflection of identities yet to emerge, oscillating between the familiar and the unknown. Unlike the interstellar odysseys of Mythos & Protos, Portraits from the Future embraces simplicity—faces and forms that are us, but not now. Crafted with the same aesthetic rigor that defines Borghetti’s practice, these signed and numbered plexiglass prints invite viewers to gaze into a mirror of time, where the individual and the collective converge in a shared destiny.
A Dialogue with the Future
These portraits depict a time that is not yet—but awaits us nonetheless. A future not invented, but inevitable.
