Coming from a reflection on authenticity, the hybrid execution process results in a unique work to which the matrix is incorporated during the manual finishing operation, sealing its irreproducibility.
Inscribed
in a scroll of earth, stone, metal and water, this work bears the scars of an
excavation of details. Carving marks frame and staple impressions conjugate
this buried world to the present tense of the indicative, expressing a fact
that is occurring at the very moment we call it to mind. As often happens in
MM's work, images are not without risk. "These mother-figures may represent a horror hidden in the depths of
human evolution, or an unexpected danger: it is possible that our precedents
will resurface, sanctioning us for actions aimed at the domestication of our
own species." _MM
Of the utmost quality, the impression on canvas was entrusted to a highly specialized European laboratory. The handmade finish is also unalterable
by the passage of time.
