Installation
The back of the gallery will host an immersive environment that recreates De Novellis’ performative piece Si tu m’aimes, protège-moi (2020) through video, sound, tactile and light elements. In the arid and dry countryside of Southern Italy women covered the ears of hens before practising any violent gesture that could have shocked them and caused their infertility. Addressing this custom, in this performance De Novellis carefully takes a hen on her knees and protects her ears from the noise.
