Elia Cantori's 'Shadow in Process' at CAR DRDE Bologna
Elia Cantori, a Marche-born artist born in 1984, presents his solo exhibition 'Shadow in Process' at CAR DRDE in Bologna. The show explores a physical and concrete practice that leans toward abstract art and the concept of an open work. Cantori employs fusion techniques, deconstructive restructuring, and original reproduction to create alternative worldviews. Works include mirrored fragments forming frames of emptiness in floor installations, ink traces replicated by folding paper evoking Rorschach psychology, and layered geographical maps in sand casting tracing unknown paths. His pieces are described as furrows digging into the unconscious, Lacanian mirrors for self-identification and estrangement, offering a destabilizing integrity that overturns totalizing unity.
