The project involves the work of two Italian artists: Jacopo Mandich and Bruno Marrapodi respectively sculpture and painting. The dialogue between the two researches regards the concept of the distortion and adulteration of childwood memories. Marrapodi deals with the narrative and figurative aspects of representation, always observing the world with a cinematic perspective. In the body of works selected for Swab, Mandich reflects on the contrast that is created between memory and reality in an ever vigil mental state oscillating between the dimension bound up with memory and that of the imagination.
