A blurry aftertaste
Italy
2021
“A Blurry Aftertaste” is a long-term project that focuses on the functionality of the home, the identity of its objects and the family dynamics that exist within the domestic sphere.
Through a series of performative experiments and collaborations with members of her family, Eleonora AGOSTINI creates images that speak of the house as a complex space and a complex time, a place where intimacy and claustrophobia exist simultaneously, and a platform where to explore the limits and the psychological structures of the family bubble.
“A Blurry Aftertaste” is an attempt to understand the precariousness of the notion of home, by balancing objects, trying to resist gravity, and studying the power relationships at play in the images and during the making process.
