145GR CHINA & ROPES SOLO - Simon Luca Barboni | Italy
The work investigates the relationship of different elements rooted in the history of countries that have embraced artistic research (Manises, Wroclaw, and Polverigi) and how they are connected in a perpetual search for balance, albeit precarious.
The original ceramic work from Manises, weighing 145 grams, manages to maintain a stability and survival altogether, in a play of fragility, developments, and movement.
The ropes, originating from the Marche tradition due to their handmade construction, act as a counterweight and enter into relation with the ceramic thanks to bamboo canes typical of river areas, evoking the rivers that flow through the two cities: Turia and Odra.
A performance that becomes installation, in a process of creation that employs a language evoking a tension typical of the circus, in a perpetual instability that enhances the fragility of the whole.
