Public-Private
Public-Private is
a body of work of digital enhanced still images which Elena CoIogni has
been working on for the past few months, while travelling, mostly between
Italy and England. The body of work is the beginning of a visual diary
of her perception of environments she deal with: public and private spaces
and buildings, within which her own role in relation to others changes.
As much as the relationship between private-intimate spaces and public-institutional
spaces, this investigation involves the positioning of herself as artist
and subject looking from within or outside the context. In this sense
her position (and therefore her view) in relation to the country she originally
came from changes continuously according to the ever shifting terms of
the relationship. The superimposition of two different environments allows
Cologni to create a space in between, a sort of non belonging space where
she locates herself. |
