The Slowly Project is a work-in-progress project, it is not finished yet. Performances have been made in Milan, Basel, Modena and New York. Other cities in the world are programmed for next years.
The project is a work above society and our lifes but also a work about time: to take ours time, in life and in art, beyond the formal stereotyped social ways. Slowness becomes a metaphor of a contrast between personal time and social time, between interiority and exteriority.
The performance consists in moving in 'slow motion' on daily life, walking so slowly to become a shocking figure into the busy and running crowd of the city or into the wandering visitors of the art exhibitions.
All the
videos are an autonomous work.
