Daniele Puppi's Multisensory Installation at Zoo Zone Art Forum

exhibition · 2026-05-05

Daniele Puppi (born 1970 in Pordenone) presents a multisensory installation at Zoo Zone Art Forum in Rome, combining color, space, sound, and video to create a disorienting experience. The work is installed not in the main exhibition hall but in small staff-only spaces, forcing viewers to actively navigate the gallery. A dual-screen setup in a narrow passage juxtaposes Alfred Hitchcock's 1960 film "Psycho" with Gus Van Sant's 1998 shot-for-shot remake, creating jarring audiovisual contrasts. The installation explores perception of reality and induces a "multisensory reanimation," blurring boundaries between original and copy.
