Emotional Geography by Tiziana Alocci

The Emotional Geography series is the result of Alocci’s extensive travels over the past years, as wherever she visits she records the world around her. This documentation has evolved into a personal archive for the artist, containing not just all the photographic and sonic data she has amassed but also the memories and emotions attached to her recorded experiences.

Each of the limited edition prints in the collection captures two different moments in one artwork: The first is the audio recording from each city, as seen in the white spheres made up of thousands of tendril-like individual lines, and the second is Alocci’s own heartbeat, with her pulse taken as she listens back to the original recording. The heartbeat on each print is seen in the dotted line orbiting the central circle, a hand-finished chrome detail by the artist.
