Quantita' - Fiducia
2003, Single Channel Video, 5'01". Quantità Fiducia is a 5' video that holds a certain similarity with todays music video clips, with the difference that there is no element of narration in the story, nor any particular subject matter in what seems to be a growing mess of flashing clips of artworks following each other in a syncopated way. A Eurotrash French song keeps repeating c'est trop tard (it's too late) while scattered imagery of artworks keeps filling the screen, together with a rolling sign of statistical data analyzing and numbering justabout everything. The video aims to reflect at what's happening to contemporary culture today, where its amount is so vast that it overwhelms any notion of quality, therefore quality (or what we think of quality) is replaced by trust in someone else's judgment.
