Description

The Journal of Discontinuity series presents multi-year daily notes in the form of classic and digital collages, video works, and glitch/gif animations - reactions to current events combined with intimate experiences of a multitude of external sensations. It is conceived as a daily discipline aimed at creating continuity in the analysis of various social phenomena permeated with personal perception. Striking fragmentation refers to snippets of days, frozen frames that have left the strongest impression in a certain period of time, combined with a specific psychogeographical reflection on those moments.

Discontinuity, suspended or annulled time, should denote the individual's position in the current dimension of time-space and a very complex social and political moment. The feeling of helplessness and hopelessness intertwines with plans that have not been realized, thus individual efforts are canceled out or, at best, put on hold.

In the collages, architecture predominates as a motif, deconstruction of real spaces, parts of impersonal and sterile interiors, and structures of city maps, as a comment on the current tendency to transform urban space into a new, hybrid version of the città ideale, albeit distant and in motives quite contrary to the original Renaissance idea. The exhibition is a form of personal struggle and an act of resistance, through which the artist and curator of the project jointly express awareness of the necessity of critical thinking and active participation in current social changes.
