I LIBERI?

ephemeral installation, Biennale dell'immagine Bi12, Chiasso (CH) 2021


I Liberi? is a an ephemeral paper artwork of 2.4x11 metres installed in Corso San Gottardo during the Biennale dell’Immagine Bi12 in September 2021.


Digital collage is the ultimate image manipulation and Sir Taki has made it his favourite technique. His film training has made him interested in mise-en-scène, the gap between representation and truth, and the falsifications that occur more or less consciously in this space. "I Liberi?" is his latest work, editing that creates meaning, a manipulation that gives rise to an artificial intimacy. The tools of deception themselves are depicted in the mural in Corso San Gottardo, on the building of the Fotografia Pedroli shop, created during Biennale dell’immagine Bi12.
