*2023 stock. 150 copies limited edition* In the second act of Panorama, Claudio Rocchetti idealize self-discovery, embarking on a journey through a land once thriving and now stripped of every meaning.
Like a silent observer, he wanders through the meanders of a pale and intangible non-place, witnessing the residual memories of an urban cemetery: abandoned and decrepit structures, whose skeletons remain as a symbol of a lost daydream. Imperceptible frequencies of deafening silence leak the images of the last inhabitants abandoning the island under a thunderous storm; the wind carries the howling sound of a horn, the very last ship leaving that deserted land. The journey concludes in feeling even more lost, alone in solitude, like an island within an island.
Island Within An Island is the second act of "Panorama", a 7" triptych exploring the connection of sound and memory. Soundtrack originally composed for "Island Within An Island" installation by Giuseppe De Mattia (Galleria NoWhere, Milano - 2013).
