Impressio in urbe #2 – Siracusa
"sculpture and Syracuse"
Synopsis
Impressio in-urbe explores the textures of urban space: the materiality of architecture, perspectives of a city that you will never see. A breakdown of the city’s covering from which the torn, apparently immobile matter emerges. It is the trace that everything and every gesture leaves behind: an identikit (or vivisection) of the space and time of the city. This film has been produced as part of the MADEprogram project (Siracusa)
