Monster (2023): When the Truth Is Not in the Telling but in the Seeing
Not every silence is empty. Some are filled with things too heavy for words.
Villa Dionisia
"This animism of spaces takes on unusual dimensions in Villa Dionisia (2003-2019), where a family house is portrayed as a metaphor for cinematographic apparatus. The continuous coming and going of lights and shadows illuminates the interior of the house and links it to the exterior - a garden table, a dish with red fruits, a forest path leading to a lake where two children are moving around at the end of summer - assembling memories and childhoods." — Celeste Araújo
