Fondazione Sviluppo e Crescita CRT Italian Fellow in Visual Arts
February 28–June 17, 2022
Profession
Artist, Turin
Project title
“Secret Sharers”
Project description

In psychology, the term alter is often used to designate the other sides of the personality. To the child, arriving at the idea of an alter is a significant step in the process of socialization. Later, interior “others” may emerge, even stronger than other aspects of the personality and more apparent in what is projected to the outside world. My work at the Academy will involve a series of drawings and paintings exploring these themes.

The photograph of Manuele Cerutti was taken by Francesca Ferreri.
