Linda Ann Cipriani / CLASH

CLASH (2023) is an abstract video which was part of a site-specific installation titled ‘LEFTOVERS’ exhibited at Pan Gallery, Florence in November 2023. It has been created by using an I-phone and a 3D scanner and AR (Augmented Reality) app. With these apps the artist recreated the 3d models of various sculptural and painting compositions which consequently have been overlapped on top of each other. The artist used the phone as a tool to go in and out of 'limbo' between the real physical compositions and their own 3d representations. During the editing more importance has been given to those details where the glitch, the technical problems, create a fight between the digital and the physical parts. 

Linda Ann Cipriani (1995) is an Italian / British multidisciplinary artist. Her work aims to challenge the idea of painting taking into consideration the digitalised era we are living in. Through disruption, playfulness and failure she is interested in showing the aesthetic experience of the domination of visualization and image that is saturating our social and daily life. Her practice is strongly based on empirical research and material appropriation pushing further both the physical and digital dimensions. She likes observing how technology shapes our perception and our relationship with space. She usually creates immersive mixed media site-specific installations.  Ultimately she uses High Tech devices as a medium which she can decontextualize and attack. She is more interested in their glitches and what cannot be achieved instead. Linda graduated at Oxford Brookes University with a BA in Fine Art & Film Studies and an MFA in Fine Art. She is currently based in her hometown Livorno where her art studio is. She recently exhibited in Venice, Slovakia, Athens and Berlin.
