canecapovolto

Testimonies of young women, the jealousy of their boyfriends, the indifference of their fathers, the intransigence of the stereotypes that pass through them. 10 episodes of an experimental web-series on sexism and gender violence, born immediately after the rape in Palermo in July 2023 in an attempt to build a counter-narrative that demystifies the macho and misogynistic mythologies of the media and the collectives, against the backdrop of anthropological considerations on “men who hate women”. Disturbing, percussive and pounding like all the works by canecapovolto, a place in which to penetrate the problem and extract its roots for a greater understanding of things. The series is copyright-free, it can be freely reshared by anyone.

Talking about the story of the Gaza genocide with other images and other words is possible. The discovery of some slides in a high school in Catania is the starting point for analyzing the origins of Israel's military occupation of Gaza by resorting to the etymology of the words used to describe what expressions like "terrorist" or "military occupation" mean, while the drawings of Amos, an Israeli child who portrays his imaginary friend Anya under the worried gaze of the babysitter May Golan, point out that most horror stories have deep roots in everyday life. Invention and black humor try to overcome the (denied) reality of an apartheid and a normalized genocide, exposed and simultaneously removed.

The post-war period and the New World Order recounted through documentaries, war movies, photographs and various artifacts. Waco, Oklahoma City, 9/11, war on terror and special laws, the "Other America" and the destruction of the Constitution.

Designing artificial relationships between found or stolen elements is a technique that seeks to discuss found footage. Credere a tutto tells about houses and living beings and has developed by intertwining ancient photos, a text, a film sequence and original video footage. Materials that take on time, space and new meanings within the expanded vision of the so-called “spectators”. A techno music session while séances and panoramic views of derelict houses question us about what we see and what we cannot see.
