Mario Fallini
Visual Arts
Spring 2021
Visual Artist – Italy
Mario Fallini will develop a project on the Tower of Babel, which is in line with one of his favorite topics: “Language and Writing”. He will use “bricks” decorated with the text of the Old Testament, employing about seventy different alphabets that will symbolize the communication gap between different languages. This work is intended to be a warning in a time when it seems that humans no longer have the ambition to reach heaven through a symbolic construction, but rather to standardize their reality, in which the diversity of individual cultures is weakened by the mechanism of globalization.
