Short Stories:
WOODEN SPACESHIPS
2016
The work, created during a residency in Viborg, Denmark, in February 2016,
intertwines fictional and real stories hidden in the landscape.
The series brings together glimpses from the technological race to innovation that characterizes the development of the western societies, nature and daily neighborhood life, echoing environmental science fiction references.
Wooden Spaceships was made as a response to one of the oldest plantations of oak trees in Denmark (dating 1700 ca.). The Royal Danish Family planned to grow these trees to produce timber for their fleet, a process arrested by the industrial revolution and its technological shift from timber to metal.
Kids today use the area to play and create small vessels out of their imagination.
Part of the work was exhibited at the Copenhagen Photography Festival in June 2016. A publication was created for the occasion and printed on newsprint in an edition of 20 copies.
Storie Brevi:
ASTRONAVI DI LEGNO
Questo lavoro e stato creato durante la residenza artistica a Viborg, in Danimarca, nel febbraio 2016 in risposta ad una delle piantagioni di quecie piu antica della Danimarca (1700 circa). Questi alberi, piantati per approvvigionare legname per la costruzione della flotta reale, non sono mai stati tagliati grazie alle trasformazioni tecnologiche apportate dalla rivoluzione industriale, che hanno visto molto legno venire sostituito con il metallo.
Questo meraviglioso bosco e usato oggi da famiglie e bambini che creano navi volanti con rami e foglie.
La serie e composta da Fotografie e collages ed e stata esibita al
Copenhagen Photography Festival 2016. Una piccola pubblicazione su carta di giornale e stata prodotta in un edizione di 20 copie (Sold out).
