Few excerpts (stereo versions) from "La casa è un tempo" ('Home is a Time'), my new quadraphonic sound art installation.
An immersive experience in continuous playing, "La casa è un tempo" explores the concept of living and its re-meaning. A spiral of ritualized time, articulated in golden proportions, weaves into its materials the most remote imagery of our species with a heightened impression of current reality, that of a migrant in the Mediterranean and of a European-Western citizen.
"La casa è un tempo" inhabits the intersection of the familiar with the distant. It is an act of knowledge caught in its unfolding through dreams, nightmares, individual and collective memories, daily life, relationships and hopes. It is an invitation to redefine the very concept of living as a place where we can re-weave meanings, feelings and rituals, where we look for and meet - through signs and with our bodies - the Other within and outside ourselves.
