cesare callegari - Antigone - 2021

The project is called "Endless Talking / Life Rebuilding", a quote from Joy Division's song Atmosphere. It is a project that tells us about the endless possibilities of building and rebuilding.

The project focuses on the two statues # 7 and # 8. # 7 is the largest and is made of marble paste, # 8 is plaster and concrete. Both are painted in black acrylic paint and covered with tape belonging to political parties and banks. They are coated with vinyl resin and wrapped in spirals of glue mixed with mineral powders. They represent the possible evolutions of humanity from the classical age (both are Greek gods: # 7 is Persephone and # 8 is Antigone) up until the modern era.
