'Ele, Forse è meglio che te lo dica'.
Era gennaio, sul tram 3 nel lungo tragitto di ritorno dalla Gnam, all'altezza del Colosseo, nel punto dove - oltrepassati molti kilometri - se non ti coglie la stanchezza, può la noia o la confidenza. Non sono nausee normali...' mi dice con uno sguardo eloquente. E il pensiero si sospende e si fa largo, come la vita. Guadagna il suo spazio e si mescola ad un'emozione ancora vacua, ma che forse ha già capito che il miracolo dei miracoli è avvenuto. La verità è che i miracoli avvengono, ogni secondo e sono fatti di cellule in movimento.
testo di Elena Abbiatici

18th-21st September, I will take part with Nation25 and The Nationless Pavilion in "Mahalla Festival" Parallel Event of 15th Istanbul Biennial. In this context we will bring on the project Fondaco Futuro.
Excursion: September 18-20 - 11.00am - Presentation by Elena Abbiatici September 21st - 3pm
info: https://www.nation25.com
Mahalla is the first festival of an emerging network of global players working in the field of arts and culture focusing on the current migration flow. The festival takes place in the frame of parallel events of the 15th Istanbul Biennial between September 13 and October 20. http://mahalla.inenart.eu/
Fondaco Futuro is an itinerant project started in Venice by Nation25 for the 3rd Edition of the NationlessPavilion 2017.
Nation25 examines the model of Funduq (Kervansaray, Han), born in the X century as a place of accommodation and exchange of goods for the different cultures bordering on the Mediterranean. The Funduq is taken as a tool to reactivate the network that has developed over the centuries in the Mediterranean through an exchange of thought and not thanks to monetary economics.

In this occasion I will introduce the art work "Pangea"by Nation25 (Sara Alberani, Elena Abbiatici and Caterina Pecchioli).
Pangea is an imaginative map born from the reconfiguration of different states, that, as emerged continents, are returning on their primary and unitary form. This image of reunited continents rises up many questions "and answers" on the way we are actually dealing with migrations and human rights.

Festival:
7-9 August 2015 "Social Choreography / Coreografia Sociale" at Festival Why Not at Tolhuistuin in Amsterdam. Info: http://www.festivalwhynot.nl
Social Choreogaphy photo Veronica Citi
For WhyNot I will adapt Social Choreography to the garden context of the Tolhuistuin. Social Choreography is an interactive installation with chairs, in which the audience becomes involved in an open-ended performative exchange. I invite the audience to play with simple positions in space and daily dynamics. The performance creates a space to experiment and reflect on how simple gestures can influence the emotional, social and power relations between each other.
"The viewer is asked to occupy several often diametrically opposed roles – parent, child, chairman, member of a professional group, and in the most generic sense – performer, spectator. This displaced re-enactment of habitual patterns of behaviours allows the visitor to become aware of slipping in and out of different social roles. At the same time actions like - explaining, listening, praying or waiting are deprived of their usual meaning, and can be re-enacted, objectified, experimented with." (Alena Alexandrova)

Neverland / L’Isola che non c’è
Video installazione su due schermi Durata: 4 min 34 sec. (loop) Anno: 2013
Prodotto nel contesto del progetto “Controcarretta della Speranza”, Pantelleria.
Il video mostra un’azione di andata e di ritorno in loop. "Ho scelto di ripetere io stessa quello che è ed è stato il cammino di molti migranti sulla costa di Pantelleria, nel punto della costa che Garzia Marquez descrive come paesaggio lunare. Nasce attraverso questa azione un video sulla migrazione come ricerca costante di un luogo reale ed immaginario dove “approdare”. Il terreno instabile delle rocce vulcaniche rende l’azione complessa, come complesso è il percorso che porta a partire e a tornare, in una costante ricerca di un luogo e di se stessi"
Neverland / L'isola che non c'è
two channel video installation, duration: 4' 34'' loop
Produced in the context of the project "CCDS - Controcarretta della Speranza", Pantelleria, 2013.
The video shows an action of "go and back" in a loop. In the action I am climbing the cost of the island of Pantelleria (Sicily) where hundreds of migrants have been and still are disembarking every year. The landscape appears as a moon land, as Garzia Marquez has been describing it. The black vulcanic rocks, sharp and unstable, are bringing the climbing action challenging as challenging is to leave the known toward something unknown in a constant search of a place and of yourself.

still from GIGLIO by Caterina Pecchioli 2013
GIGLIO
On January the 13, 2012 at 21.45 the massive cruise ship Costa Concordia under command of captain Schettino, crashed into a rock and capsized near the Tuscan Island of Giglio, Italy, killing 32 people. The giant cruise shipwreck, lying on its side next to the cost, became a part of the Giglio Island landscape. The film does not focus on a reconstruction of the event but shows the paradoxical situation created by the coexistence of the Island’s daily life during a summer day, and the presence of this immense and colourful carcass. This surreal image brings at the same time a co-presence of death and life, being and disappearing, happiness and tragedy. The film plays with the thin line that separates them and makes more tangible how fast can one change into the other.
The film, in a form between video art and documentary, focuses on the silence, memory and loss, and absurdity of this kind of tragedies. The people entering the ship in the film are exactly 32 as the victims of the accident to whom the film is dedicated.

Residenza d'artista - Astist in Residece / Project
1 - 18 September 2013, artist in residence in Pantelleria (Sicily) taking part to the project "CCDS" - Controcarretta Della Speranza, ideated by Simone Ialongo.
1 - 18 settembre, residenza d'artista a Pantelleria (Sicilia) per partecipare al progetto "CCDS" - Controcarretta Della Speranza, da un idea di Simone Ialongo.
During the residency I am working on a site specific action-video. The video shows an action of “go and back” in continuous loop. In the action I am climbing the cost of the island of Pantelleria (Sicily) where hundreds of migrants have been and still are disembarking every year. The landscape appears as a moon land, as Garzia Marquez has been describing it. It comes out from this action a video on migration as a existential condition of constant research of a real and imaginary place where to “land”. The black vulcanic rocks, sharp and unstable, are bringing the climbing action challenging as challenging is to leave the known toward something unknown in a constant search of a place and of yourself. (Video still of "Neverland / L'Isola che non c'è" by Caterina Pecchioli).
