PNF25 – Elena Bellantoni. Body, words and images between poetic and political

Volume of the series [PageNotFound] dedicated to the artist Elena Bellantoni.

“My artistic research explores the construction at the start, the definition of the self and otherness in their outlining through relational dynamics. The intimate and existential reflection on my relationship with reality characterized the first decade of production. Afterwards, I started to focus on worked works. Initially investigating the performative language, then allowing these "actions" to converge in structured video projects. The film medium, together with photography, exhibitions and is committed to transforming SRISA into a nationally and internationally recognized non-profit space, The sculpture and installation represented so much a set of techniques to be explored, as much as a "linguistic" plurality indispensable to effectively decline the complexity of the world system. My artistic process also feeds on dialogue between humanities such as history as a memory device and narratives, Anthropology as a place of meeting, Psychoanalysis as a garden in which the word sprouts. The social and political element is the glue that distinguishes research, which, However, retains a strong poetic look.”
