By struggling together, subjects alternative to the Anthropocene and their practices could have the power to transform care for the Earth into a new and real ecological revolution.\"&nbsp;<\/em> S. Barca<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph translation-block\">Being an active part of a territorial struggle is a life-changing experience. When you come from the <em>Wasteocene<\/em>, you understand more acutely the full meaning of the colonial design that drives energy policies and decisions regarding the management of waste, hazardous refuse, and the climate crisis across territories. Above all, you come to understand the true weight of \u201cotherness,\u201d forced to confront environmental racism, the violence of normalization, and the tired rhetoric of the \u201csacrifice of the few for the good of the many.\u201d\nMoreover, the <em>embodied knowledge<\/em> that emerges from the direct experience of struggle and environmental contamination makes it easier to unmask official narratives that gloss over contradictions and complexity, narratives that conceal political manipulation, labor blackmail, speculative maneuvers, and the extraordinary profits made at the expense of people\u2019s lives. Rooted in the embattled province of Caserta, I came to truly grasp bell hooks and the radical message of her concept of marginality:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-style-plain is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40)\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cMarginality is a site of radical possibility.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-container-core-column-is-layout-534a3a1e wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-greenshift-blocks-container gspb_container gspb_container-gsbp-97a7df6\" id=\"gspb_container-id-gsbp-97a7df6\">\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From that place, I began to wave flags with fierce conviction, working with communities to build a shared imagination grounded in self-determination and the desire for collective redemption. I celebrate the bodies of the most beautiful forms of resistance and cultivate bonds with extraordinary women and men.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The very concept of environmental justice has led me to live in a state of permanent agitation, where artistic practice emerges as a necessity and unfolds through three fundamental axes: painting, collective textile practice, and participatory and performative practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The series of collective textile works entitled ALBANOVA primarily involves women in the shared creation of flags, banners, and tapestries which, through popular and religious iconography, reimagine a symbolic feminine visual language of territorial struggle for environmental and social justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through the photographic project MARTYRION, I retrace the sites of environmental disaster alongside communities, associations, doctors, journalists, and activists, creating a mapping of stories of resistance and of bodies living through the dramatic realities of environmental contamination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, within the rituality and the resistant pain of the repeated gesture, my performative practice finds its space.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div><\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_gspb_post_css":"#gspb_row-id-gsbp-923af5a,#gspb_row-id-gsbp-c7bbf64{justify-content:space-between;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap}#gspb_row-id-gsbp-c7bbf64{transition-duration:.6s;transition-timing-function:var(--gs-root-animation-easing, cubic-bezier(0.42, 0, 0.58, 1));opacity:var(--gs-root-animation-opacity, 0);transition-property:opacity,transform,filter}#gspb_row-id-gsbp-c7bbf64>.gspb_row__content{display:flex;justify-content:space-between;margin:0 auto;width:100%;flex-wrap:wrap}.gspb_row{position:relative}div[id^=gspb_col-id]{box-sizing:border-box;position:relative;padding:var(--gs-row-column-padding, 15px min(3vw, 20px))}#gspb_row-id-gsbp-c7bbf64.aos-animate,#gspb_row-id-gsbp-c7bbf64[data-gs-aos]{opacity:1;transform:translateZ(0)}#gspb_col-id-gsbp-983dc5c.gspb_row__col--12{width:100%}@media (max-width:575.98px){#gspb_col-id-gsbp-983dc5c.gspb_row__col--12{width:100%}}.gspb_row #gspb_col-id-gsbp-983dc5c.gspb_row__col--12{padding-right:0;padding-left:0}#gspb_row-id-gsbp-923af5a{padding-right:40px;padding-left:40px}#gspb_row-id-gsbp-923af5a>.gspb_row__content{display:flex;justify-content:space-between;margin:0 auto;width:100%;flex-wrap:wrap}#gspb_col-id-gsbp-9a22f89.gspb_row__col--12{width:100%}@media (max-width:575.98px){#gspb_col-id-gsbp-9a22f89.gspb_row__col--12{width:100%}}#gspb_col-id-gsbp-9a22f89.gspb_row__col--12{font-size:var(--wp--preset--font-size--small)!important}.gspb_container-id-gsbp-97a7df6{flex-direction:column;box-sizing:border-box}#gspb_container-id-gsbp-97a7df6.gspb_container>p:last-of-type{margin-bottom:0}#gspb_container-id-gsbp-97a7df6.gspb_container{position:relative;box-sizing:border-box}@media (max-width:575.98px){body.gspb-bodyfront #gspb_container-id-gsbp-97a7df6.gspb_container{display:none!important}}","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-330","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"blocksy_meta":{"content_style_source":"inherit","has_hero_section":"disabled","styles_descriptor":{"styles":{"desktop":"","tablet":"","mobile":""},"google_fonts":[],"version":6},"content_style":"boxed","vertical_spacing_source":"inherit","content_area_spacing":"top"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/antignani.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/330","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/antignani.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/antignani.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/antignani.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/antignani.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=330"}],"version-history":[{"count":181,"href":"https:\/\/antignani.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/330\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2208,"href":"https:\/\/antignani.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/330\/revisions\/2208"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/antignani.art\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=330"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
