Clod 310

This work belongs to #Dart2121 exhibition. From the 23rd of November 2021 to the 6th of February 2022, Milan - Dart Museum - Permanente di Milano - Wrong Theory. Clods are small parts of our planet. The latter has been destroyed, exploited by human greed. So we are left with a multitude of these lumps of earth, debris floating the void. Inhabitants of these Clods are fortuitous. They are the survivors of destruction who find a clod and try to rebuild a new life. There are various kinds of Clods: the quasi-anarchic ones, where everyone lives their life without caring about others, and the controlled ones where it is never clear who the person in charge might be. While the clods seem to have a comical look, they are not. One should always try to go beyond the first reading. With the Clod I investigate the human soul with its deviations, its quirks and its antics. It is important, when looking at a Clod, to observe it thoroughly to grasp its nuances. Clod 310, presented here, is slightly different from the others in that the inhabitants have not rebuilt, but have adapted instead, to live in an old building remains. On the building’s roof there is a sign that says: “Sorry”. The inhabitants apologize, but to whom, and why?
