GIUSEPPINÄ (self-portrait), 2017

A cardboard box is leaning against the wall: it has the appropriate measures to contain my body and the packaging and design of IKEA products. The article is Giuseppina.
The box, vibrating, emits sounds thanks to a vibrating speaker inside. The widespread audio track is obtained from a recording of Google Translate.
“Giuseppina” (my name) is taken by Google Translate female voices in different languages available in audio playback (Chinese, French, English, Spanish, Korean, Finnish, etc).
GIUSEPPINÄ is a self-portrait and / or the overlapping of the “Giuseppina” possible identities.
