Inferno (Cross)
Video installation
Loop
Inferno (Cross) is a second version of the artist's video Inferno. The 9 days of Dante's Hell are represented by 9 screens, which reproduce opposite moments of the day. At night, while everyone is asleep, the steelmaker expels all possible waste and increases production by spinning the gears of this deadly machine even faster. The cross, according to a very personal vision of the artist, does not take on a strictly religious meaning but becomes a symbol of death, which detaches itself from everything and violently imposes itself on the eye of the beholder as an irrefutable sentence.
