Il Paesaggio Spezzato is an installation composed by 32 sculptures made from cardboard and little
pieces of wood. When recently I came back to Italy I had the needs to look at the Italian landscape and more specifically at the concept of “broken landscape”. I wanted to work primarily with something related with our vibrant past, but that could also be connected with the present.

Thus, this multidisciplinary installation comes
out from the confrontation with my territory…it reminds a landscape, but can
also be seen like an urban suburb.
This work was a challenge to me, not only
because today is difficult to approach the theme of landscape without doing a
cliché, but also because in this work I wanted to use all the media that I have
been used over the last years.
Which are photography, painting, drawing and
installation.
