Black Friday

This project reproduces in scale a destroyed urban landscape. A suspended IV bag slowly releases a red liquid resembling blood. The progressive dripping physically erodes the model beneath, built with fragile materials such as sand and PVC. The intervention is part of a series dedicated to airstrikes carried out on Gaza, each titled after the official names of Israeli military operations. Every installation is visible only once. At the end, all that remains is a video document, presented in the following exhibition. PVC, sand, cement, synthetic blood pigment, programmed drip-release mechanism Site specific self-destructive installation Variable duration (from 72 to 120 hours) Disintegration becomes language. Blood functions as a device. The project vanishes to remain in memory.

BURQA EX CARNE (from the series Human Fragility) Resin and ballistic gel sculpture, approx. 165 cm Anthropomorphic figure covered by a drapery recalling the form of a burqa. The surface, made of resin and ballistic gel, simulates the texture of flesh. The work belongs to the Human Fragility series, focused on the relationship between body, identity and social vulnerability.

Mechanical Archangel series

Fabio Weik’s project stages a collision between a machine of death and the fragile persistence of nature. The structure recalls the outline of kamikaze drones deployed in the current war between Russia and Ukraine, devices programmed to erase life from a distance, their attacks circulating endlessly through social media feeds. These images of vertical descents, of targets consumed by a remote eye, constitute a new grammar of war, a vision in which sight itself becomes execution.
