Alexander Tillegreen: The Upsweep Paradox

The exhibition, curated by Atto Belloli Ardessi, includes a new series of artworks created throughout a three months residency, during which the artist had the opportunity to access and research the archives of Isisuf, International Institute of Futurist Studies, from which the FuturDome project was conceived in 2004.

Alexander Tillegreen’s practice, starting from the use of sound as a perceptual vector, integrates photography, sculpture, painting and installation, investigating the relationship between psychoacoustic sound phenomena and their potential to reflect and awaken the linguistic and cultural situationality of the listener and the psychological fluidity of the subconscious.

The exhibition is articulated through the 4 levels of the inner body of the building, triggering a sort of objective experience in the activation of past and present events/occurrences, capable of redefining the perceptual limits of time and space. A structural and temporal progression in the cognitive architecture of our mind, characterized by phonetic Phantom Words illusions that induce the listener in a narrative condition of unconscious inference.
