Caterina Silva, RÈCIT

Room 5
Invited by Enzo Cucchi


A story? No. No stories, never again.
What happens to the Thing when it is said? Does it live? Does it die?
Is it possible to imagine an open form that overcomes the inadequacy of language in defining the real, pronouncing but at the same time keeping alive without destroying?
My research explores pictorially the linguistic limits of the sayable. The signs I use are not representative, they document a time, a reality. The images are not the narration of an event, but the event itself. The viewer has the task or the possibility of constructing his own personal vision.
The project for Casa Testori is an attempt to generate a Mystery through the alternation of light and darkness, of gravity and grace.

Caterina Silva was born in Rome in 1983.
