A MOVIE WITHOUT A MOUNTAIN / A 35 MM ON SCALE
2015,
FLORENZ CONTEMPORARY Italian Embassy in Berlin curated by Angelika Stepken, director of Villa Romana.
The installation is generated by the collision of a performative approach with matter. The painting/collages situated on the surfaces of the swinging PVC shapes, feature morbid virtual movements inspired by the idea of cinema taken as a remote concept of narration, generating solid bounded structures captured in a state of flux. The PVC pieces are modeled on the furnitures, wall and floor as mutant objects; they float in the space as well as their content do on their surfaces.

A MOVIE WITHOUT A MOUNTAIN (2015)
acrylic, plastic, film filter and tape on PVC, 120 x 250 cm
The work is the result of a process that interlaces cinema
with its material outcome; it shows a movie’s debris on
a soft plastic screen. “Scenes” are sought together by
painted brush strokes, constituting an imaginative story,
without referring to any real movie. The “movie’s
script” is turned into an abstract object, being the product
of the materialization of the movie’s aura. This way the
hypothetic film works only as an input, gaining the possibility
to be started over and over again; the public can
stroll around the synthesis of an abstract narration, which
blows up anti-narrative sequences.
35 MM ON SCALE (2014)
acrylic, plastic, film filter and tape on PVC, 100 x 215 cm
Mixed materials and painting on a swinging PVC generate a fluid
dimension that aims at unsystematically intersecting in the given
contest, an open-device yet with autonomy, softness and defined
boundaries of an imagined film. The usage of materials as variables
create a suspended abstraction on a flat area in between depth and
surface, movement and stillness; abandoning hierarchical constants
of action and painting, the work recalls a process of resistance in
between virtual and reality.
