Artist Statement for Ioanna Kazaki
|
|
|
Ioanna Kazaki was born in Salonika Greece.She has studied painting and printing at the Romes(Italy) School of Fine Arts. In the «Findings from Planet Earth»,occurs a game with the concepts«past-future».The title refers us to the future.The works refers us to the past, when man used to record events in the sense of depicting life(painter)in a language comprehensible by all,the language of images.The whole work has emerged from a long-lived review of history, from an attempt to decodify Mythology,searching therein hidden secrets about the origins of universe and man.This ends in an anew symbolical and codified language:A language of images. but this is also the result of a personal and immediate need to record the«dark»history of man. In this pictorial «alphabet»,symbols or links like:Dinosaurs(prehistoric era),cloc(time trasmission),an eye looking at viewers or urging them to watch faces-viewers,people escaping,foot-prints,viewers who previously stood by at an event...All these lead us to «confront»more complex images,many of whom unclude tragic moments :Stains in the history of mankind like human sacrifices,canibalism,genocides and animal sacrifices.Historical events of a distant past that also «decorate» the recent and even the present history of «civilized» man.The genocide of native Americans, the chain-dragging of Africans,the Nazi crimes a.s.o.The narration concludes with contemporary reality, with global homogenization and with suffocating urban landscapes.It also concludes with moments of our present times similar to a film-carre, in an unbearably fast, insane and distructive pace while the global master-mind and its ten billion neurons/human beings,connected mutually through the internet,is already a fact of our proximate reality.
