EXHIBITION

Queerpandèmia exhibition, artistic contaminations of other genres

22. Juni bis 2. Juli 2023 BASE Milano, Mailand, Italien

Interface Cultures Studierende Sofia Talanti nimmt mit "Reconnecting" am Projekt von TWM Factory, Ultraqueer, BASE teil. Apparently foreign and frightening practices, through which LGBTQIA+ subjectivities conquer a space of representation in society. A re-appropriation of all those narratives - from the sick to the monstrous - that like a weed create new life. Contemporary and emerging artistic practices that show how the extensions of the body, identities and sexuality unveil new ways of making the world.
The selection of works ranges from video art to photography, from design to painting, from installation to sculpture, in a multiplicity of languages that interpret hybrid imagery between the plant, animal and digital worlds.
 
Project "Reconnecting" by Sofia Talanti
The project speaks of the artist’s relationship with their own body and how they rediscovered sensuality by excluding the rules of gender binarism, in the curves of theirshapes considered feminine by society. Through objects and moments experienced in contact with sexuality, the artist re-appropriates what makes them feel understood and embodies a new role. What results is an intimate and attentive portrait that is presented to the public in a hidden form. The artist has had their naked body scanned in 3D in different poses, in moments of submission and domination, with female and male attributes. Various textures were applied to these scans, blending the body with the objects in the scene, not giving full awareness of what we are looking at. Appropriate cutouts have been chosen for each pose, which hint at the sensual forms in front of us.
