Curated by Marianna Vecellio

Winner of the illy Present Future 2017 Prize with the work Soundtrack for a Troubled Time (Soundtrack for difficult times), 2017, acquired for the Collections of the Castello di Rivoli Museum of Contemporary Art thanks to the Foundation for Modern and Contemporary Art CRT , Cally Spooner presents Everything Might Spill at the Manica Lunga project room

Through performative work and tools such as writing, sound and film, Spooner stages absurd repetitions of today's political, economic and media rhetoric, in which the patriarchal order also controls one's time and relative productivity. Using references that include philosophy and social sciences, the artist investigates the ways in which the pervasive diffusion of technology is altering both the body and the mind of the contemporary individual. “Cally Spooner - writes Marianna Vecellio, curator of the exhibition - explores the ways in which contemporary subjectivity and the human body are subject to continuous changes dictated by the technological condition. Through installations, writing and performances, his works analyze the influences of invisible violence spreading in the digital age and examine the concept of physical and ontological erosion of the living being in a present dominated by digital data.

Spooner's artistic research focuses on the way in which "the advanced techno-capitalist apparatus threatens to drain life through the optimization of affects, bodies and language and asks how we could merge with this techno-apparatus, transforming and mobilizing affirmatively this posthuman alienation. " Her exhibits and performances are anchored in feminist philosophical processes and incorporate physically, acoustically and conceptually the concepts of durability, erosion, maintenance, destruction and collapse as practices of resistance as opposed to the sudden global fluctuations of financial markets, the unstoppable flow of digital data, and the imperative demand for productivity that capitalist society imposes on each individual. "

In Everything Might Spill, 2018, a wall drawing that bears the enlarged image of a human organ is related to a fountain from which an admittedly toxic liquid gushes out. The installation can be interpreted as a disturbing reflection on the human condition, subject to a growing and obsessive dependence on technology, to the point of moving towards uncontrollable and irreversible mutations.
