Mariateresa Sartori Il suono della lingua

Each work by Mariateresa Sartori is an analytical passage aimed at breaking down the rigid boundaries which man has established for limiting knowledge and expression. For her, each time this is a question of regaining real data and to consider it all from specific and unusual angles.The project created for the Foundation inquires into the expressive possibilities of language from the point of view of rhythm, melody, and sonority. By leaving unchanged the typical ways of using a library, within the dictionary room with its open shelves the artist has placed books with earphones that allow the visitor/reader the experience of reading in their own language a significant poem, but one made unrecognisable from a semantic point of view because of the altered order of the consonants while the intonation and the metrical scansion is kept the same: the result is something completely incomprehensible but absurdly familiar.
