Whatever It Takes

By concluding this series and simultaneously releasing the book, the author symbolically closes a chapter of his life, while offering a glimpse into it through his imagery.The collection of photographs from 2019–2025 frames a period in […]
Botteghe Oscure
Representation must no longer be understood as the externalized animation of a dead object, such as an ornate vase or a carved chair, but rather ought to be thought of as having the qualities of a brick, which actively inhabits multiple modes of being. The brick is an eternally immanent object, lost in its own […]
Bruise, Shine on My Skin
The exhibition by Joanna Fluder at the Polana Institute is a strongly personal narrative about domestic violence, told from the perspective of the skin—or rather, through the wide range of bruises appearing on the body. While understood as a symptom of healing—the gradual resorption of blood diffused within the subcutaneous tissue—they also follow a distinct […]

TASON-KULKIJA
There are transitions that do not follow familiar directions or time, but occur between layers, surfaces, and intuitions. Tason-kulkija is composed of paintings and sculptural elements that move within these in-between spaces. The works observe the connections through which we move between different planes, detaching and returning, often without noticing. A fictional perspective runs through […]
A Corpo Torto
Voids, transparencies and reflections, burns. Forms of an exposed body, a twisted body offered up to the world. Nicolò Cecchella’s work stems from the perception of a reality now reduced to tatters, from which he gathers traces and fragments and fuses into the dense, living matter of things. An open brass head revealing its soul […]
