Fabrizio Ruggiero ILLUMInazioni - ILLUMInations, 54. International Art Exhibition, Biennale di Venezia Collateral events. Bhanganaya - The Liberated Human Being-. Sestriere di Castello Rio de S. Isepo Ponte S. Domenego, Venezia 14 August - 4 September 2011 An empty, negative frame of a human body, The Liberated Human Being -The Enlightened One-. The sculpture through the symbolic image embodied in it, wishes for the dissolution of the structure of the conditioned mind that besieges Human Beings at the beginning of the second decade of the third millennium . It envisages our awareness as whole and free from the conditioning of socio-political, economic and religious norms. Observing the continuous change of natural phenomena through the empty frame of the sculpture, it is possible to notice how the process of awareness and understanding is not of a world existing by itself. Rather, observation continuously generates the world. The empty moulding of "Released Human Being" is a symbol of the transformation of one's reality through the constant, clear awareness of the impermanent nature of phenomena. In his work, Fabrizio Ruggiero questions the issues involved in the relationship between language and the domain of digital art and investigates the potentiality of the network installation model to develop a more fluid environment for story-worlds to take place in. On occasion of the presentation of this work Fabrizio Ruggiero declared: " I agree that the distinction between what is real and what is virtual is a false dialect, and being a visual artist myself, I investigate how the virtual/digital work not only allows " the continuation of the dematerialization of the art object " but also how out of this dematerialization " New Worlds " are possible for the understanding and for the re-naming of what is real..."
