Catherine Biocca's Surreal Video Installation at Galleria Eugenia Delfini in Rome
Catherine Biocca (born 1983 in Rome) presents a solo exhibition at Galleria Eugenia Delfini in Rome, centered on a surreal video-installation depicting a conversation between a woman and her dog. The dialogue touches on existential themes, with the dog embodying wisdom and the woman lost in hyper-connection. The installation is assembled with rubber joints and chains dragging lifeless hands, blending camp aesthetics with lo-fi quality. Accompanying wall works feature anthropomorphic vases with uneasy expressions, made from colored polyurethane foam that gives them an alien brightness. The exhibition marks Biocca's return to her hometown after several years.
