EXHIBITIONS

In 2014, within the Seventh Biennial of International Contemporary Art Cartasia, it was shown the indoor exhibition “Liquid Identities”.

The Show “Liquid Identities” is inspired by the theories of the Polish philosopher Zygmunt Bauman, used to analyze a key concept of the contemporary: the impossibility to define concepts, people, places and characteristics, due to their continuous transformation, of their being iridescent, ever changing, due to the massive acceleration that global development has given to every aspect of contemporary life. At the same time when we try to analyze a phenomenon, be it social, political, artistic, anthropological, and more generally human, its substance has already changed, and it becomes undefinable. This inability creates a Liquid identites society, in which concepts and ideas melts together and continuously transform, giving a birth to a constant metamorphosis era. By developing this concept, we gave voice to some avantgarde paper art artists, trying to highlight the liquidity and difficulties that brings with it each form of definition, judgment, objectivity. The works shown are offered to mixed feelings and multiple interpretations, also thanks to the media used: paper. A motion of bewilderment and surprise captures the viewer in front of these impossible objects, made with an ancient at the same time extraordinarily innovative material.
