Esperimento n°1 - Il televisore è acceso
Video Installation, 2019
Projection on Non-functioning Cathode Ray Tube Television, White Led
This work is an “experiment”: a cognitive game that refers to the socio-psychological experiments on the perceptive and behavioural system of man. The necessity I feel to introduce the neuroscientific field is bond to the assertion that for me producing art means confronting the human reality.
The focus of this analisys is, in particular, the perception of truth acquired through medias. In this context information is absorbed in a passive way, without any critical filtering.
The site-specific installation uses a mapping of the room to generate the illusion of a switched-on television, which in reality doesn’t work at all. The short video dispayed shows a lit fireplace, alternating phrases designed to question the viewers perception, introduced by a series of sound cues.
