The video work is a component of the experimental digital project “Living The E(art)h,” conceived to delve into the creative and relational potentials inherent within social media platforms. This initiative seeks to transcend their conventional usage as tools for self-promotion and presentation, transforming them into expansive and pervasive artistic experience. By harnessing the tools and functionalities provided by platforms such as Instagram and Facebook, participants were prompted to re-examine their urban environments (Cetinje and Turin), navigating them from the familiar confines of their homes. Through glimpses captured from the architectural apertures of buildings, a dialogue emerged between the intimate domestic sphere and the bustling urban landscape. In the artwork titled “2.02” the body emerges as both, a measure of the world and a locus of personal utopia, anchoring an introspective journey. This exploration led to a profound reconnection with my city and its surrounding spaces. Employing transparent and reflective surfaces, a video diary was created, that chronicles a voyage—physical and mental, external and internal. The objective is to fracture narrative time into an unceasing loop, where each day unfolds as a unique and distinct experience, yet maintains an immutable link to those preceding and succeeding it.
