Two digital prints, 67×100 cm. Three panel installation, digital prints on Forex, various dimensions.
As a child, puddles fascinated me.
Small pools of vibrant water.
After heavy rain, small drops shattered in the body of water
creating concentric circles that reshaped that small cosmos below.
I walked the street imagining that they were windows to a parallel world.
A world turned upside down, mirror of ours. A reflected but different reality.
Now, I realize how much reality and the web, reality and virtuality, are each other’s puddle.
Like two mirrors placed opposite to each other in an infinite competition.
The certainties of what is truly real are shattered, giving way to a world of reflections,
pools of water where only sporadically
thanks to a few drops of rain
it is possible to distinguish the realness.
