Curating art, narrating reality.
A place where creativity and research meet.
Here are our projects:
Luogo Pazzesco presents, from September 16 to 18, 2022, the site-specific installation Tendendo all’estremo ci incontreremo dall’altra parte by Chiara Mecenero.
This work is conceived as a poetic and critical dialogue with the space, where two canine figures, modeled by the artist in clay, are positioned at opposite poles within a field of tension. The sculptures are connected by an imaginary rope, whose force—exerted on their collars—becomes a palpable and visible energy, bent and taut enough to constrict their throats. This tension functions as a spatial metaphor, a measure that defines the boundaries and horizons of a conflict zone, embodying a desire for escape that remains ultimately impossible.
If barriers did not exist, these dogs could undertake an endless journey around the globe, meeting at the antipodal point.
Mecenero’s work invites reflection on the relationship between space, limits, and freedom, using an image that serves as a metaphor for human conditions and social tensions.
