Irene Fenara: Praticare la Vertigine

Irene Fenara: Praticare la Vertigine

The feeling of emptiness as a quiet place where anything can happen, causes an anguish which is similar to the feeling of instability and disorientation of vertigo in front of things around us and those bigger than us, physically, as can be a mountain or the sea, and emotionally, as may be the insecurity of making a choice. Vertigo is a distortion of sensory perception that affects the movement of a person giving him a wrong perception of movement in space, characterized by loss of balance.

Irene Fenara: Se il Cielo Fugge

Irene Fenara: Se il Cielo Fugge

Fragmentation of the external world and nature enter in the exhibition space, deconstructing the visual and spatial perception of the spectators. Everything becomes the opposite of everything: the distant comes near and the neighbor moves away; the below becomes the above and the above the below; the sky is land or sea; the rooms in the rooms turn and then return to the floor in a new horizontal perspective built by the artist through images and videos that establish a reversed dialogue between themselves and with the beholder.

Dicotomia

Dicotomia

Space and time, place and perceptions, everything is amplified or cancelled; the spectator has the faculty of reading. Commitment, desire to reinvent oneself. Ability to rediscover oneself. Willingness to return. Two bodies, two entities (dual) that live one through the presence of the other in perpetual hiding, without pretense. The result is to live the scene in a new dimension where the bodies appear waiting for the last transformation. In search of the last motive.
