“[…] perhaps—beneath what we desire and value—there is nothing but an uncanny, placeless reality.”

Lia Mori’s first solo exhibition entitled “PHENOMENA” is open to the public until 18 April.

The exhibition is part of an ongoing project and stems from a personal theoretical research on socio-political and technological issues. These are explored in the light of concepts such as limitlessness and liminal space, the desecration of the landscape and intimacy as an act of reversion to common use and as a modern civic duty, as defined by G. Agamben, the shadow as a repetition or echo of the self and a point of recognition of elements associated with the concept of the unfamiliar, as defined by psychology.

The exhibition is a narrative experience that focuses on some of the snapshots of paradoxical phenomena. A peculiar entity invades the urban landscape and spreads invasive, disturbing the familiar. Within this environment, human presence becomes apparent through its absence, charging the landscape with feelings of alienation and mystery. These phenomena imply a state of confusion between present and future, given and desired, physical and Digital; a condition of waiting for the coming.
