Proxemics as Curatorial Framework at Marignana Arte

Curators Clarissa Tempestini and Ilaria Bignotti have organized a group exhibition at Marignana Arte in Venice that uses proxemics—the study of interpersonal communication and spatial relationships—as its conceptual foundation. The show rethinks intimate, often inaccessible dimensions of human interaction within a contemporary context marked by instability, disorientation, and forced individualism. Artists include Laura Renna, whose installation "Grove" transforms introverted space into a shared experience with cold materials but warm atmosphere; CCH, who covers old mirrors with blue military tape to disrupt reflection and selfies, fragmenting the word "Reinassance"; Enrico Boccioletti, whose digital cosmos connects with CCH's discontinuous trajectory; Vanessa Safavi and Tyra Tingleff, whose face-to-face tension loosens; and Francesco Candeloro, who splits into a chromatic horizon awaiting light. The exhibition runs at Marignana Arte in Venice.
