Inductive Portals

Work relating to the Fortuny Museum intervention, as well as the development of a series based on inductive portals and unconscious entry points into the City of Venice.

 

The title of the show is related to a quote from D comme Désir by Gilles Deleuze: “To desire is to construct an aggregate: an aggregate of a skirt, of a sun ray... of a street, an assemblage of a woman, of a vista, of a color. That's what desire is: constructing an assemblage, constructing a region, really, to assemble. Desire is a constructivism. All of this concerns physical phenomena, In order for an event to occur, a difference of potential state is necessary, and for there to be a difference of potential, two levels are required, so that something occurs, a flash occurs or not, or a little stream... and that's in the domain of desireThat's what a desire is, constructing. Everyone of us spends his/her time constructing... When anyone says, I desire this or that, that means that he/she is in the process of constructing an assemblage, and it's nothing else. Desire is nothing else”.
