Quasi-Objects
The Quasi-Objects cycle, initiated in 2003, is composed of photographic and videographic materials generated
with the assistance of 3d modeling, animation and rendering software.
In earlier works consideration had been already directed at
the process of complexification of contemporary universes of Sense, focusing attention on possibilities for chronicling semantic shifts intervened in the
system of subjects/objects. This was done either by finding pre-figurations of this phenomenon in multiversal forms of existence which are output of the
process of bio-mechanical contamination [Sample-Kit, 2002-2003] or by presenting a multi-layered vision of body geographies achieved by means of
the plastic coexistence of object based and project based instances [Operative Systems, 2003].
Quasi-Objects continues on the same research path, processing its synthetic-combinatory genesis as operative advantage within a practice of organic
re-design intended as a whole to stimulate thought and dialogue about the progressive relativisation of natural forms of life as a result of
techno-biological evolution. [>]

[>] As products springing from digital calculation, synthetic images are free from any reference to optical reality and from relationships
of existential references; the possibility of accessing, thanks to them, to plausibility, abandoning at the same time any attempt
to a judgement of truth, not only opens up creative research to unattended plastic horizons but - by inevitably shifting attention
from the Image itself to the knowledge-quota of the digital model that establishes its Presence (from the output to the process) -
we think it contributes to make ourselves positively willing to constructive thought about the relationships we entertain with the Real
and particularly on the meaning of Life in terms of a real and autonomous process disjoint from any specific material manifestation, a
generative grammar that is independent from the holding subject.
In this Sense Quasi-Objects regards actualization of data, production of biologically
a-functional occurrences (bio-politically dysfunctional), dealing about Life, but without reference to the outcomes it is used to recognize; possibilities
that can be viewed as transient outputs of an operative practice: aesthetics of process.
