A word from the artist

Max Marra, Automazione (2021)

The idea comes from a pictorial work by Maestro Dario Fo from 2015. One can see figures in action and others static, in a scenography of asymmetrical scaffolding. I carried out a pictorial scene change on the Maestro’s work, with the scaffolding becoming automatic conveying lines of coded goods, while the human “accumulation” impersonates the technical operator in a productive and modern industrial setting.
