Cristina Cusani's Memory Installation at Naples Arsenale
At the Arsenale di Napoli, artist Cristina Cusani (born 1984 in Naples) presents an intangible art installation that transforms shared memories into a sonic and visual experience. Curated by Marco Izzolino, the work features a meditative chamber with red-lit monitors evoking James Turrell's light and Joseph Kosuth's conceptualism, where visitors encounter recorded voices and inner photographs. The piece emphasizes the weight of recollection as a creative act of recognition, care, and empathy. The project aligns with the Arsenale's commitment to non-tangible art.
