SUSPENDED LISTENING
In an age when the noise of the world suffocates every pause, every breath, every silence, listening becomes a radical act. Suspended Listening is a project born from this urgency — to give form, matter, and space to that which, by its very nature, often remains invisible.
Through a series of sculptures and installations, the theme of listening is made concrete and tangible.
Ears — modeled in clay or silicone, sometimes porous and organic, other times white and sterile — take on different postures and dimensions: some are partially buried, others trapped in nets, immersed in jars like seeds ready to sprout, or framed like relics. These presences become metaphors for a kind of listening that requires care, attention, and protection.
A painting expands the symbolic dimension: from a cracked eggshell fragile origin of all life what emerges is not a creature but the very faculty of listening, suspended in a sky of light clouds.
Listening appears as a generative possibility, both fragile and precious.
The journey is enriched by further works and installation devices that broaden the reflection: threshold-words, sound elements, fossil-like forms, and material traces that explore the boundaries, resistances, and transformations of contemporary listening.
Suspended Listening is an exhibition that explores the vulnerability and power of listening — understood not only as an auditory function but as a poetic, political, and human gesture.
It is an invitation to slowness, to relationship, to presence: a way of inhabiting the world with attention and awareness, restoring value to what connects us deeply with others and with ourselves.
