Esther Fantuzzi is an Italian visu­al artist who­se research lies at the inter­sec­ti­on bet­ween the use of ana­log cine­ma­to­grap­hy tools, wri­ting prac­ti­ces, and per­for­man­ce. Strongly con­nec­ted to the reco­ve­ry of pre-exis­ting mate­ri­al as the main tool of inves­ti­ga­ti­on, they reas­sem­ble films, archi­val mate­ri­al, and uti­li­ze live pro­jec­ti­ons, around the idea of a tra­ver­sa­ble and mul­ti­sen­so­ry cine­ma, which deli­ne­a­tes new boun­da­ries through the devel­op­ment and inde­pen­dent pro­duc­ti­on as an act of resis­tan­ce. The con­cept of par­ti­ci­pa­to­ry and inter­dis­ci­pli­na­ry cine­ma is at the core of their artis­tic appro­ach, in which cine­ma is not just a nar­ra­ti­ve tool but beco­mes a means to tra­ce new boundaries.
