This is a vinyl cover I designed for a sound piece I created for one of my projects. The piece looks at the presence of the voice within the chamber of the body as a vessel of expression, in which we project our invisible selves into the external world...
This blog will follow and document my journey as I take on my second semester at the Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti in Milano. It will also be a way for me to share my thoughts, project ideas, self development, and experiences whilst I am away...

MY WORKSHOP~ Marcello's Class
These stills were taken as part of a workshop I held for my class here at NABA. The workshop presented a series of investigations that looked at our presence socially within space. As an exchange student here, for me it was very important to create this true exchange, where we as a class came together as a collective body. The series of works included: Exploring Yourself in Space, Mirroring Each Other, Human Balance, Social Sculpture and Awakening Together...
Into the Forest...(Sculptural Experiment)
'Into the Forest' is an installation that originally came from another project idea, but once I projected into the exhibition space it became a very different piece. I see this project as still a very much work in progress, where I would like to be able to re-install it in a much larger space, and explore the ways of involving the public...
This for me was more a realisation of how sometimes when you put an idea into a different context, it can completely change the message behind the work. This piece very much makes me think of my work a few years ago, also using imagery from nature and projecting onto the human body. This is a different exploration, in which I create a walkway into the projection, a space for the public to explore their own presence within the space...
Coriandoli~ INSTALLATION...
These are stills that I took of my mini installation at NABA last week...The space was used to project a video I had shot on the streets of Milan looking at the presence of Coriandoli in public space. I also scattered coriandoli on the floor of the gallery space, as a way of connecting external and internal spaces...
TOGLIERE~ Picking the pieces...
These are a collection of stills of a video piece I made in relation to a performance called 'TOGLIERE'... In this video you witness the scene that is left after a performance where I remove the pages of a book. This piece is about looking at the space once something has been activated within it, the aftermath of an action, and revealing that what happens after a performance is as much as part of the art work as the performance itself...

'SOUL PORTRAITS'
This is a project I created for my photography class. 'Soul Portraits' are a series of introspective photographs that look at the internal presence of humanity in space. The images are overlapped with automatic writing...
