Lucia Leuci is presenting solo exhibition mamme cattive, bambini creoli (Bad mothers, creole kids) at Milan’s TILE project space, opening April 5 and running to April 29.
The Bari-based artist will present a series of sculptures installed, arranged and then “modified by several actions” to create a surreal scene where “stories between parents and children are analyzed by the artist’s personal view”.
A short piece of prose in the press release introduces the theme around identity-building, cultural construction and social interaction that forms new languages and defines “the crumbling away of old cultural and social model boundaries”:
“In his eye I saw the glare of a small figure, backlit, brought to a rusty railing with the peeling paint. A tiny hand, intent to shake with atavic phlegm a shabby cloth, didn’t realize that the dust dealt feverish in the air”
