Diego Marcon's 'La miserabile' at Triennale Milano

At Triennale Milano, Diego Marcon (Busto Arsizio, 1985) unveils 'La miserabile,' a site-specific artwork that adapts his cinematic visuals onto plaster. The focus is on a dying girl depicted through stark black linework, intentionally omitting shadows to include them. Marcon expresses, "The human condition is pathetic to me, as it continues to drag itself along as its own burden. This is why my characters appear exhausted." The installation reimagines the Impluvium as a 1:1 scale perspective curtain, serving as a stage for the overlooked and the final. Three windows in the backdrop hint at what lies ahead, while rhythms and gestures illustrate the swift loss of childhood.
