Babies Are Knocking
Studio Stefania Miscetti is proud to present BABIES ARE KNOCKING, a group exhibition curated by Veronica He, Pia Lauro and Chiara Vigliotti. Over 40 Italian and international artists have been invited to reflect on the urgent desire to live that characterises a pre-school child鈥檚 experience, and how this feeling manifests itself in play as a form of experimentation.
The aim of the project is to engage the visitor in an exhibition that connects the actions of pre-school children to the artists鈥 way of working 鈥 including by physically shifting the point of view from that of an adult to that of a child. By favouring an experiential approach that 鈥 inspired by children 鈥 is based on free play and a person鈥檚 capacity to modulate their attitudes, the project seeks to question our cultural and emotional sensibilities, with the ultimate aim of finding new solutions and ways of interpreting reality.
While the adults ask themselves what kind of energy will be required to recover from the public health emergency, a whole generation of children born no more than a few years ago continue to nurture their urgent desire to live. They do so out of a fearless sense of conquering the world, while drawing on a reality that is made up of small, concrete things. Therein how the babies are knocking on the door to the future, and following their natural path towards it.
