Flesh Prays In Silence
Through hybrid compositions that combine anatomical references with industrial metals and digital interfaces, the works on view propose speculative materialities—bodies suspended between the physical and the virtual. These fragmented forms do not suggest loss but transformation, a shift toward a new corporeality that is fluid, adaptive, and shaped by digital systems.
By positioning the body within shifting technological landscapes, the exhibition examines the intersection of the biological and the artificial. Mattioli’s sculptures evoke an uncertain future in which human morphology is no longer singular or stable but distributed across multiple states of being. In doing so, they question the evolving boundaries of embodiment and material presence in an increasingly mediated world.
