TRITTICO - Human Installations II III I

The work merges my Human Installations in a single performance of strong visual impact. It is inspired by José Saramago: "Like all young men the son of Joseph and Mary was born in his mother’s dirt and blood, in the sticky mucus, suffering in silence". My encounter with the american artist Ron Athey was essencial to the creation of this work. Extreme body art and Christian iconography (here a real crucifixion takes place using body suspension and needles are used to provoke tears of blood), the transition from woman to man, the naked bodies and the nuances of gender (women, men and transgender) allowes parallels between the human and the devine self determination (the Word becomes flesh, God becames man). The work combines the concepts of Judith Butler’s queer theory and Stelarc's considerations on body. "Kyrahm and Julius are Captain Achab of the new body trans-oceanic frontier of existence, able to stop and recreate the world, where poetry becomes the human sacrifice that yields itself (by choice) and suffers (in spite of it) - Marco Fioramanti.
