My work was born of a need to listen to people’s opinions, in different important moments of our contemporary world. Inspired by the words of Martin Luther King and (to cite a figure of current events) Greta Thunberg, I made a video installation consisting of split-screen, where people are filmed during a walk, thus creating a connection bet ween people who dialogue together to solve issues related to the environment, climate change, war, immigration, and much more. My video installation entitled “ WE SHALL OVERCOME ” wants to be a common space, where everyone can say their opinion and at the same time be the change we hope for so much. A work therefore, able to constantly live its time, able to adapt in every place.
The most interesting thing is how we, as humans, can unite and come together to solve issues collectively and how ar tworks might inspire social change and encourage people to care about their environment.
