Using gaming software and 3D sculpture, Zari models his face and expressions, giving shape to a presence that is both artificial and intimate.<br \/>\nWith the project <em>We Have the Same Eyes<\/em>, the artist establishes a virtual relationship with her father, developing an emotional connection that crosses the boundaries between reality and simulation.<br \/>\nThe work begins with a single word \u201cDaddy\u201d, learned from her mother and visible in an archival family photograph. From this original fragment, the project evolves into a physical 3D sculpture of the father\u2019s face, and then, through video, focuses on the complexity and variability of his expressions.<\/p>\n<p>Alba Zari\u2019s practice (Bangkok, 1987) integrates photography and virtual tools through a documentary-based approach to investigate social, cultural, and identity-related dynamics, with particular attention to themes of memory and mental health. Her work questions photography as both trace and construction of the gaze, balancing analytical rigor with poetic sensitivity. Biographical experience lies at the core of her practice. Continuous movement since childhood has contributed to shaping a perspective attentive to the social and political dimensions of places and to conditions of fragility and marginalization.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/drive\/u\/1\/folders\/13BH0IiEv9K1Hu-IvIKA4oQ6PWeAFP2oP\">Press Kit<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>We Have the Same Eyes<\/em> | Alba Zari<br \/>\nMETRONOM | Via Carteria 10 | 41121 Modena<br \/>\nfrom 28 January to 17 February, 2026 | h24<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a9 Alba Zari, Installation 3D printed recycled PLA, <i>Massad<\/i>, 2024.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":835,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"digital-video-wall-category":[77],"class_list":["post-825","digital-video-wall","type-digital-video-wall","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","digital-video-wall-category-theorypractice-the-italian-new-wave-2026"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.4 -
