press release
The first solo exhibition of Jennifer West (USA) in an Italian museum, curated by Lorenzo Giusti, is comprised of ten films created starting from 2005, a group of 11 zines and a new work, Film Title Poem (2016), “a psychic montage of my inner history of film," for which West re-shot more than 500 existing movie title cards on 35mm film and manipulated the print with etched patterns, scratches and punctures before transferring it to HD. This feature, sensual, partly abstract, partly imagistic work delves into how fiction weaves itself into our memories and how our viewing experience has changed with the digital revolution.
