FABRICA 16100 [Genoa] delves into the labour history of Luciana, who worked for ten years on the assembly line at the Tubettificio Ligure – a factory which produced primary and secondary aluminium, closed years ago. Her personal story is intertwined with the stories of other workers. Luciana talks, recounts, and her words go into my body, in the space, and tear it apart into sectors: each sector is a state of the body, like islands where the body becomes something else, where it is different than before. A fragmented dramaturgy of the body, interrupted and connected by shifts in space, a passage from one memory to another. A muscular, tendinous and skeletal narrative, a continuous oscillation between micro and macro, between detail and overview.
FABRICA 16100 [Genoa] tastes like a biography, an individual journey, a real-time sceneโlike a here and now that is no longer history.
