FRAGMENTA: coastal constellations revelations
description

IT: Contemplazioni astrali e pratiche nautiche guardano agli elementi scorgendo quella che è la loro caratteristica più basica e vera: ciascuno di essi concorre alla formazione di forme riconoscibili e tramandabili. È con questi occhi, curiosi e liberi da pregiudizi e nostalgie, che la ricerca di Stefanos Antoniadis guardare a tutti quegli oggetti rifiutati e scomodi, eppure così intimamente mediterranei – infrastrutture portuali, silos, gru, ecomostri, insediamenti abusivi, frammenti di modernità –, se si vuole tentare un’operazione di riformulazione del paesaggio costiero.
