TRASFIGURAZIONE
VIDEO 4K | colour | no sound | 32 sec | 2022
'Trasfigurazione' is a visual prayer. The video investigates existential mourning. The shot is a Renaissance self-portrait, which sheds light on the emotional psychology of the 'I'. It has an ascending rhythm. The Christic theme of transfiguration, inspired by Raphael's painting, is elaborated by bringing to light the ambivalence of the word transfigure. Feeling to be transfigured highlights the laceration of the loss of identity. To transfigure also means to transform, to take on a different appearance, to light up one's face. The video closes with the body in a cross, fading behind the veil. The 'I' eclipses, manifesting, in the loop, the search for a present being.
