FLAT EARTH VISA

Audio description

2019

Steel, neon tubes, wire mesh

Flat Earth Visa is a site-specific installation, which was designed for the Park. It is comprised of two sculptures: three satellite dishes pointed towards the sky, and a series of fused steel fences. In these two artworks, the artist converted digital processes into sculptural objects: in the first one, he created a shape which reminds of an itinerary between satellites and telecommunication stations on Earth; in the second work, he turned digital images of the many fences that divide territories all over the world into real presences. These sculptures, which light up in red during the night, provide cues to reflect upon the flow of limitless, digital communications over the Internet, in a world made of real walls and imaginary boundaries.
