IDENTITY AS IDENTIFICATION
The magic moment of an image and the emotion aroused following the suggestion of an imaginary itinerary, that makes the real world seem strange and far away are suddendly interrupted by words belonging to the language of bureaucracy, the most conventional language possible.
FALL & LOSS OF A DEAR FAMILY
Violence and dependency, chance and madness in psychological and personal relationships. The family considered a paradigmatic knot.
WHO IS LUIGI VIOLA?
A game, maybe a dream, an exchange of identity with Dalibor Martinis, Sanja Ivekovic and Goran Trbuljak. But who is Luigi Viola? The man who is praying, the man who is shaving, the man who is drinking, the blonde girl who is playing ping-pong? This is just a starting-point.
TAKING PLACE
In this case taking place means changing places, a complete and mutual transformation, as is seen in the eternal contrast between bios and thanatos. In the video changing places becomes a moment of identification, favored by the ambiguity of a date, 1949 which is the only element two people have in common, since one of them died and the other was born in that year.
TEMPORIDENTITAS
Carolina, Vincenzo and I duplicate our reflection an endless number of times, as if one were mirrored in the other. Material time and psychological time blend in an exhausting oriental repetition of gestures.
A 5' WRITING
Four speeds in writing associated to four physical movements that become louder and louder. The word returns to gestures and the body to survive. The real time of screen-writing makes the time of poetic action coincide with the time of the reader, reflecting the biological rythm of life into the experience of language and writing.
VIDEO AS NO VIDEO
An analysis of the nature of this means of communication. The absence of an action on the video does not mean the negation of the video; on the contrary, the less freedom is granted to the image, the greater freedom is granted to the imagination. An attempt to probe into the body of the video to discovery its soul.
URLO (GROANING)
An image that recalls childhood, frees the verbal stream of memory and the subconscious, reduces words to an indistinct groaning coming from the innermost recesses of the body, as amorphous psychic matter.
DO YOU REMEMBER THIS FILM?
An intensely lyrical sequence. A movie in the video to create a tunnel through memory. An alphabet pronounced by a sweet voice in which every letter corresponds to a word whose emotional suggestiveness creates associations with childhood, its ancestral significance, its dreams, its magic, its mistery, its nonsense.
FRAGMENTS OF AN INTERIOR SPACE
Fragments of an interior space has been realized in 1980 with P.P. Fassetta. Images roused by the meeting between reality and imagination and gathered in the mental space of the story, change as perceptions and states of mind change. The poetry of the bodily expression and the matter which is free to act in the vacuum, blend in the mutual feeling of nature.
