Echoes of the Body, 2024

Echoes of the Body represents the body as an abstract vessel of memory and personal narrative. Through fragmented and intimate imagery, she explores its dual nature, strength and vulnerability, presence and absence, self and other. The body becomes a companion, a witness to experience, and a living archive that carries the traces of past and present, guiding and sustaining the journey of identity

‘’ON THE EDGE OF THE SILENCE OF THE ROAD THE BODY THAT CONTAINS MY DIARIES FOLLOWS ME. BEYOND THE ROAD IT STANDS BESIDE ME, IT CARES FOR ME LIKE AN ANGEL, IF CARED FOR BY ME. POWERFUL IT DRESSES A SELF-PROPELLED VEHICLE OF LIFE. IT SUPPORTS ME AT THE END AND THE BEGINNING OF THE ROAD, THEN IT SMILES AT ME BECAUSE IT IS A LIVING BODY.’’

THE WALKING BODY, MARINELLA GALLETTI
