Alicia Frankovich's Pop Fruit Prints at Le Case d'Arte

Alicia Frankovich (Tauranga, 1980; lives in Berlin) presents a series of pop-infused prints at Le Case d'Arte in Milan, where she previously performed in 2008. The works examine the 'bodies' of fruits—apples, bananas, and Schwarzwurzeln—enlarged to the point of unrecognizability. Frankovich describes them as 'living beings in themselves,' alluding to distant cosmologies, Dalmatian spots, skin, or legs. The transformation moves from micro to macro, dismantling anthropocentric perspectives and repositioning humans within the ecosystem while critiquing destructive effects. Visitors are invited to eat mandarins and throw the peels on the floor, creating a tangible trace of consumption.
