略歴

Mariangela Ciccarello is an artist working in moving image, installation, and sculpture. Her work has been featured at the Locarno Film Festival, Edinburgh International Film Festival, Torino Film Festival, Harvard Art Museum, and Film Society of Lincoln Center among other venues. She has participated in residency programs and workshops in Europe and the United States. She was a participant in the 2018 edition of the Feature Expanded international film production workshop. In addition to her solo career, she has also produced work as part of the artistic duo Nusquam Productions, dedicated to critical interrogations of Mediterranean geographies, histories and identities. Her work has been supported by the Roberto Cimetta Fund, the Valletta 2018 Foundation and New York State Council for the Arts among others. She has been a featured artist at the Mediterranea 18 Biennale and the Syros International Film Festival. She holds an MFA from Mason Gross School of the Arts, Rutgers University (US), an MA from the University of Provence (FR), and a BA in Philosophy from Alma Mater Studiorum, Bologna (IT). In 2019-20 she was a participant in the Whitney Independent Study Program – Studio Program. Mariangela Ciccarello’s practice explores the fissures or ruptures, which allow imagination and reality to communicate, in order to create a wider space of possibilities where new paradigms can take form. In such a fluid territory, questions of gender, as well as race, class, mobility, resistance to war and capitalism, can be reformulated differently from models of exclusion that predominate in the world today.

"The four corners of the hexagon." The essence of a well-known polygon, its applications and appropriations, are explored through geometry, history and cinema. Polygons are everywhere, or, rather, everywhere is a polygon.

A young woman investigates an island’s geologic specificity, discovering hidden strata where history and memory meet barely submerged narratives of displacement and imaginaries of possible futures.

An example of a very extended practice in New York City, a city where apparently there is no place anymore for low income and working class people. The detention of Josh and Amron Israel opens a space for hope

Director

Combining high definition and Super 8 footage, Lampedusa is composed of interwoven narratives based on a series of real events. In 1831, a volcanic island suddenly erupted from the sea a few kilometers off the southern coast of Sicily. An international dispute ensued, as a number of European powers laid claim to this newfound “land”. The island receded below sea level six months later, leaving only a rocky ledge under the sea…

Five people are connected through an apocryphal story: a decade ago, a group of anarchists from the U.S. stole Leon Trotsky’s ashes from their resting place in Mexico. This central narrative is articulated through those of a Mexican activist lawyer, a Greek professional couple, a Tunisian journalist and a Kurdish student. Each has some connection to international networks of solidarity and activism, which, for some, are now in the past. Filmed in New York, Marseille, and Athens, their separate recollections converge in a portrait of the tensions between the personal and the political today.
