Grossi Maglioni is an artist duo using research-based performance, installation and group work to explore how care and relations participate in building shared forms of experience, including motherhood, ecology, education and narration.
By bringing together interdisciplinary fields of knowledge, our long-term practice conceives the work as a moment of verification and redefinition of creative process interacting with both the public and the context.
In our work, manipulable objects, installations, and imaginary devices are used per- formatively to mediate diverse research areas with the audience and make room for new perceptions and visions. We often create environments in which we invite different groups of people to collaborate with us through workshops, lectures and public events, which we see as an opportunity to open up to the complexity and meanings of the artwork itself and to explore issues of subjectivity as well as education.
Our site specific work uses images and narration as a research method to deal with social We are interested in investigating different themes related to society with a research method that focuses on dialogue and investigation of space, images and narration.
Our latest projects focus on care relationships and the figure of the mother, by investigating the representation of motherhood and nativity from folktales to archeological research.
