Ilaria Lupo
(Italy)
Beirut-based artist Ilaria Lupo develops a public space practice, contextual and process-based. She employs different media - performance as film as publishing. Methodologically, Lupo interacts with a present situation, questioning its dynamics of visibility/invisibility in the public realm while exploring its historical legacies and multiple narratives. Her site-specific interventions result into paradoxical set-ups, such as diversions of spaces’ functionality or unrealistic participative displays.
