SELF MEMORIES - The contemporary sense of awareness is focused on the perception of our being as first step for the discovering of our identity. Then, a deep investigation of our inner world and its relationship with the outside, with the passing time and the external inputs and the ongoing changes we are subjected, complete the process. This continuous personal exploration creates a path of memories which help us trace the inner map of our selves.

SELF MEMORIES - The contemporary sense of awareness is part of SELF festival, organized in Venice at Venice Art House, from the opening day of Venice Art Biennale (May 9, 2015), with a rich program of different events until November 2015. For the first time in Venice we will give audience the possibility to have private meetings with artists, to meet them personally and share their art and experience. Each event will have a strong program of video art screenings and premiers, art residencies, talks, workshops, live dj set, live experimental dance and art performances.

After many years of research and exhibitions about the evolution of the idea of identity, we ask artists to share their personal tales through artworks; to create a link between the personal experience and the audience; to tell us which are the stories and reasons beneath their works.
