Luca Federici- Passages

Dear Patient 125,

Luca Federici will be performing Passages in our operating theatre at Psycho Ward Blood Ball.  

'In the recent years, by using actions, I am attempting to give aesthetic value to some experiences that have affected my life, such as BDSM activities and Catholic religion. As Italian, I was raised with Catholic education, often surrounded by people who talked about miracles, martyrdom, punishment to find joy and peace. All this has probably influenced me and my art.

I also believe in pain and sacrifice. I see them as a way to overcome my limits psycho-physic and fears and, moreover, establish a deep contact with myself since they enable me to touch feelings and emotions that I could not reach without submitting to the pain.'

Come and join us to dissect this visceral performance at Resistance Gallery 29th of October.

Head Nurse of Psycho Ward
