Coscienza Intuitiva
Coscienza Intuitiva
Coscienza Intuitiva aims to emphasize the lack of content, of language, of meaning, not simply based on the super-collection and sharing of images: rather as a part of a social relationship between people that is mediated by images. Repeated, shared, liked. Where Truth becomes a moment of falsehood. Representation has become a simulation of the meaning of the present through superfluous repetition of any image, figure, iconography, and the reason has become a simulation through fake experiences. The project speculates on the concept of language, expressed as an idea affected in time and configuration. Driven by a compilation process that visualizes the complexity of the current digital age, its fragmentation and acceleration, the accumulation and ubiquity of objects and images. Trying to elaborate a new visual language based on the amalgamation and supercollection. A language as an evolving vessel, in which society outproducts, identified as objects of daily consumption, artifacts of the banality, collides with ruins and fragments embodying historical and cultural value. A visual Clash, depicting moments and events, through society outproducts such as toys, meme and figures. Highlighting the value of the leftover and at the same time sculpting a reminiscence of specific junctures in time. The proposal identified in the form of an architectural fragment, a column, that speculates on a new visual language, composed by the amalgamation and mutation of cultural elements, as iconographies and elements of popular culture.
