Davide Stucchi’s artistic research makes use of minimal interventions, often ones of subtraction or alteration, on preexisting materials. His installations evoke absent bodies that interact with vulnerable objects in the intimacy of spaces sculpted by intimate and private feelings and memories. The comparison with external realities such as fashion, advertising and the domestic environment in Stucchi’s works, serves as an expedient for the deconstruction of social and gender representations.

With a certain sense of irreverence without narrative justifications, Stucchi’s works are on the threshold of the image without taking it for real, on that point that crosses the plot of the experience remaining dubious and always distant. His is a proposal for the deconstruction of the macho ideal, also through a given methodology, not in the productive effort. Bodies and objects become desirable and desiring subjects, sensual elements that come alive and invite close relationships and new gestures.
