Rä di Martino's Imaginary Realities at Valentina Bonomo Gallery in Rome

Rä di Martino (Rome, 1975), who studied in London and New York, presents a site-specific installation at Valentina Bonomo Gallery in Rome. The exhibition explores the symbiotic relationship between reality and fiction, a central theme in her research. The installation features a simulated planetary system made from antique cannonballs, which the artist began collecting last year, painted with maps of imaginary cities and illuminated by small beams of light and three screens. Also on view are works from the Allunati series, visionary compositions inspired by the moon landing. Di Martino works across cinema, photography, video, and performance.
