Connettere dismettere rimuovere #1 is part of the work Questa è una rovina. Fateci Caso produced for the group exhibition Streetcart curated by O’ Vascio Room Gallery, Somma Vesuviana, Italy. A public paper based artwork From July 27th 2022 until natural destruction. The site specific installation was based on an urban ruin in the city of Somma Vesuviana, in Campania, in the Vesuvio area: an old telephone booth pedestal. The work is an essay on the remains of a wired based past in our public space, in a society of connectivity. Working on the ruin of a dismissed telephone booth in the historical center of Somma Vesuviana, a district known under the name of Casamale. It has been built with loose papers, remaining from a past printmaking residency as well as with ruins of essay prints from aquatint, which is itself a precess based on acid corruption of zinc plates.
In October 2022 I produced an edition of five aquatint etchings under the guidance to printmakers Giovanni Timpani and Vittorio Avella.
