Il libro d’artista è il prodotto della ricerca di Rebecca Agnes sul linguaggio e sulla parola. Confrontando diversi alfabeti, e tenendo come riferimento l’alfabeto italiano, ha creato una breve raccolta illustrata di lettere e parole in lingue differenti. Le lingue incluse nel libro sono quelle parlata dalle persone che conosce l’artista. Il libro vuole mostrare da un lato i limiti di visione dati da un’unica lingua e contemporaneamente fa emergere le somiglianze di lingue distanti fra loro.
Al libro si accompagna il pezzo musicale The place where words change di JERMOZERO. La musicista, che collabora da diversi anni con Rebecca, ha creato una musica inedita che accompagna e si integra ai paesaggi disegnati sulle pagine del libro stesso. The artist’s book is a product of research in language and words. Comparing different alphabets, taking the Italian alphabet as reference, the artist created a short illustrated collection of letters and words in different languages. The languages included in the book are those spoken by the people personally connected to the artist. The book intends to show the limits of one data language and simultaneously reveals the similarities of distant languages. For the presentation at Medionauta, the book is accompanied by the song The place where words change by JERMOZERO. The musician, who collaborated for several years with Rebecca, has created an unreleased music that accompanies and integrates the landscapes drawn on the pages of the book itself. |
