CONSTRUCT | #PostUtopia

#Video Art
THU-SUN / 12:00-13:50
2nd Floor

Memories, images, imagination of something that I saw, something that I bring over, something that I lived there.

I pass a “gate”, a movement “gate”, a new trip, Mattia and Elena help me, they are my ears now.

I’m telling a story through a video improvisation, I think that I construct something, I laugh, what is that, we can construct? Again, the memories appear with different forms, but are the same. Where are the rules that can make us win…?
