Giuditta Vendrame

artistiek onderzoek - conceptueel - installatie - mobiliteit

In her installations, objects, works on paper, video and performances Giuditta Vendrame deals with control of movement and the prevention of unwanted movement across different spatial scales. Drawing on legal systems she combines research on the circulation of bodies in public spaces with performative moments and symbolic gestures. Through investigations into the notion of citizenship and its paradoxes she finds ways to open political spaces through playful and poetic interventions. In her work social artificial constructions are challenged by physical geographical elements and natural forces. She seeks to understand the earth from a “humid” perspective: by using oceans and waterways as interconnected places she proposes new possible world orders that are less stable and ever changing. She deconstructs and constructs worlds to reshape the perception of boundaries, territories and movement.
