GIULIA PARLATO E DONATO DI TRAPANI
Diachronicles
Curated by Melissa Pallini
An exploration that narrates historical space as an imaginary container in which an apparent collection of evidence, opens to the fantastic. In this space, attempts to reconstruct the past are lost in ghostly voids, where objects are generated, used, buried, unearthed and transported.
For the first time, Diachronicles expands through sound to add another layer of inquiry – evoking echoes of lost stories and the instability of recorded memory. An immersive soundscape intertwines with visual storytelling, creating a world suspended between erasure and reconstruction.
