“Il centro del mio lavoro è dato da un interesse per la storia sociale dell’uomo in relazione al suo ambiente urbano, politico ed architettonico. Analizzo elementi laterali e dimenticati dalla storia, riflettendo sul rapporto tra il paesaggio urbano e lo sviluppo civile dell’uomo, tra la storia dell’architettura e i suoi comportamenti ...

PERFORMANCE ART PROJECT A material is “resilient” when is subjected to impulsive stress to test its elastic capacity and it does not deform. An “un resilient” material is fragile. Resilient is a person who faces a traumatic event in a positive way and manages to get out of these experiences strengthened. RESILIENT is an art project and a performance-action. The work is the result of a relationship I maintained with a collective of anarchist activists in the region of Puglia(South Italy). A collective group whose spirit and name derive from Buenaventura Durruti. "Resilient in the Ruins-Rebel Hovels" is a project originated after Sergio Racanati’s encounter with the “macerie baracche ribelli”. The project is based on the philosophy of TAZ temporary autonomous zones-theorized by Hakim Bey, aka a avant-garde artist, the Sufi teacher, connoisseur of cultures breaking in the '90s in which the discourse on cyberpunk, the production fanzine, the birth of the word networkers are the first pieces for a genealogy of all that later exploded with the world-wide-web. Therefore the TAZ is the original nucleus of the Network, a place where freed verticality of power is naturally replaced with networks horizontal relationships. The "Ruins-Rebel Hovels" were able to Sheds Debris keep their place while all around the logical wild rampant industrialization and created the monstrous Fashion District Molfetta (close Bari-Puglia-Southern Italy) destroyng the landscape forever. The work of Sergio Racanati talks about this history of resistance and resilience. It is the creation of an utopia, not a non-place that always keeps a relationship with a non-relationship, but the absolute creation of the absence of place.
