2006 photographic
documentation of historical heritage, comune di Ostellato, Ferrara
2000-11 collection of
material about repaired manufacts in Asia. Forms created by daily
minimal spontaneous attempts to repair, maintain and improve
buildings and things. Repairing and reshaping of things by occasional
tools and poor and recycled materials. Particular attention is paid
to the production of hybrids, through the contamination of
traditional and contemporary materials and techniques and the mixing
of components from different contexts. The world here described is
one that improvises, makes ends meet, invents solutions as it goes
along. Everyday, spontaneous solutions are portrayed, where the
scarcity of resources suggests the creative use of the little which
is available with no waste and instant responses. The result is a
creative work in progress.
