Intarsia, Jacquard y mi Ami Capital
25.06.2022 As Carla Barbero points out in the exhibition text, ¨Textile appliqués on paintings, items of clothing, a display of weaving techniques and phrases from pop hits... Lionti’s work uses manual labor and craft with everyday materials to critique aspirational consumerism.¨ Catalogs, tests, logos are mixed with the school and labor imaginary. Lionti confronts, in Barbero’s words, “visual aspects with ethical ones”. In this way, she not only dialogues with the local artistic tradition but also interrogates a present marked by the unsettling transformation of life into work. The exhibition presents a sentimental and at the same time ironic look at the coexistence of play with language, the time invested in weaving and the emotional memory of learning spaces.
