Katia Giuliani CAA Cose Apparentemente Assurde (Apparently Absurd Things) 2020, March 10th – May 3rd 6. Souvenir “A domestic chronicle, a serial work between assemblage, sculpture, drawing, performance, short video and photography with what was available at home. A report that summarizes my lockdown: news reports, personal episodes, my mental state; between symbolism and the obvious, limits and possibilities, sense and nonsense.” 18. Tribute to nature Thus Katia Giuliani, Florentine visual artist and performer, describes her project, begun during the Covid-19 pandemic lockdown. 8. France aussi It’s a daily report from home, published on her Instagram profile (one post a day), in various media, between visual art and performance. 32. E c’è chi veglia su di noi One of the images, number 5, “Reconnection with Nature # 2”, is a self-portrait with coral as a mask. The image is linked to the next edition of the Santarcangelo Festival, an internationally known theatre and performing arts festival under the artistic direction of Motus.Her practice takes as its starting point the investigation of relationships, conditioning and behavioural reference models in contemporary society, a practice that is developing ever more towards an intimate and personal exploration. Freedom, love, limit, presence, bond, connection, ritual, are the most recurrent concepts of Katia Giuliani research that turn to the overcoming of the barriers of the mind, which she explores via an experiential practice spanning across media such as performance, installation, happening and public art.
