Teresa Giannico\u2019s research instills a project of investigation, questioning space,
sculpture and photography. The artist works with a process of reconstruction of
reality as a result of a series of consecutive steps, which clear stratification and
accumulation of images from internet, then mounted on cardboards and
arranged in a diorama that it is re-photographed and re-printed in small and
large sizes.
The composition of the result follows only the necessity of juxstaposition of
different entities, creating distinct layers of reading and perception. It is an
illusionistic machine that tells the story of its elements along with their dialogue,
plastic interaction and precarious equilibrium.
The settings are result of an imagined landscape, nurtured by little traces and
memory of entities constituting their body; that through the means of drawings
become new suspended reality.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”45px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row thb_full_width=”true”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1604936538757{margin-bottom: 35px !important;}”]\n
