Interno Zoo<\/span><\/i> is a visual exploration that begins with a space inherently designed for observation - the Zoological Garden of Rome \u2013 in order to focus on the very ways through which the gaze is directed within a given context. In zoos, pathways, enclosures, openings and thresholds form the <\/span>infrastructure of the gaze. They are the elements through which attention is guided, contained and authorised; devices that organise movement; constructions that regulate the distance between the observer and the observed; and systems of control embedded within a simulation of reality.\nThrough a process of narrative subtraction, Interno Zoo<\/em> excludes animals and visitors from the image. This makes what remains \u2013 the network of structures, surfaces, pathways and separation devices \u2013 the sole object of the investigation. Deprived of the bodies, it is meant to display, the zoo loses its dimension of spectacle and reveals itself as a constructed environment. The images record what normally serves as a backdrop. Each photograph shows a space designed for a specific function. The cages, observation points, barriers and pathways do not narrate an event, but rather a logic.\nThe Interior is proposed as a condition of proximity, a viewpoint that accepts remaining within the given perimeter and observing its rules. The gaze does not seek the exception but remains within the system.\nThis work does not document what takes place in the zoo, rather, it examines what makes such happenings possible. It reveals a space in suspension, defined not by what it contains, but by the way it has been conceived to contain.<\/span><\/p>\n
