Simona Barbera: Between the translucent and the blue

“There is this place where time stops, holds up. Walking across the fading streets, in this year of dispersed rerouted empty archives, it seems like we’ve all given up too easily. Vampire youth light up corners, lingering at the edge of concrete benches and unbreakable glass windows, escaping small block of flats. Gyms shut down while in the background, widening lights of corporate shopping malls flicker in reflection all night and all day. Under the cover of dawn, the intersecting multitude is not a meeting place but a disjointed lot – Also the rhizome of the unsaid and of dusk lines, all counterpoints to the well-lit center halls. Broken neon lights hanging loose, underscore blinking to the restlessness of life itself. In a fog, in downpour, or a muted morning. Still, time looking for a single point of failure.

A gust blows past city tunnels under outskirt borders, queues split sideways, where resistance always fills the breeze breathing with the impossible.
Here is where I felt something different. Something unwritten as the sound of the hidden city made barely visible. Surfaces that stretch out in un-gridded noise, a dispersion of waves, particles, and broken curves."

Simona Barbera er en italiensk kunstner som primært jobber med installasjoner som inkluderer lyd og multimediaobjekter. Hennes senere kunstneriske praksis fokuserer på soniske skulpturer integrert i installasjoner og som reagerer på spesifikke romlige sammenhenger. Ved å utforske følsomhetene i urbane rom, stammer de fleste av hennes verk fra det akustiske miljøet som senere utvikler seg til abstrakte soniske teksturer av lagdelte former.

Stemme og bevegelser: Noam Julian Vannucci, Tania Hinz.
