CorpoVivo
The body is the first space we inhabit, our first language. It is what defines us, but also what exposes us and sometimes confines us. For this reason, talking about the body means talking about identities, relationships, desires, conflicts and memories. Beyond this, the body is also a field of tension: between the visible and the invisible, between desire and control, between strength and vulnerability, between intimacy and representation, between what we think we know and what we cannot understand. It is both subject and object, depending on the gaze that passes through it and the presence that is attributed to it. The body is now placed at the center of a profound and multidisciplinary artistic investigation: the halls of Salemi Castle host the CorpoVivo group show, becoming rooms of perception, places where a visual and conceptual journey unfolds through the body’s many figurative, symbolic, abstract, and surreal declinations, which speak of identity, fragility, transformation, and resistance. CorpoVivo does not offer definitive answers, but multiplies points of view, reiterating that the body, despite its apparent simplicity, remains one of the most complex, political, and poetic themes of contemporary expression.

and the ground begins to breathe
and the ground begins to breathe There is a moment in the cycle of the seasons when everything still seems still. The cold has not completely left the earth, the air is saturated with anticipation, and the ground, seemingly inert, begins to quiver in depth. It is a restrained breath, a silent, subterranean movement […]
