Intento dell'artistaConosco questa cittá ora. Conosco le curve i bordi frastagliati e la simmetria perfetta che esiste con ogni passo che faccio. Amo e apprezzo le grandi opere darte. Ma questo é solo un modo di conoscere larte. Come puó larchitettura riamarmi? Quanto é soddisfacente una relazione nella quale una parte solo é esplorata?Per conoscere veremente un posto si deve conoscere la sua gente. I ragazzi del Mercarto di San Lorenzo iniziano sempre una conversazione. Non importa quale é il motivo di questa conversazione perche é un invito aperto a impegnarsi come esseri umani e andare oltre la semplice conoscenza geografica di un posto. Ho usufruito di questo e ho instaurato relazioni con i venditori vicino al mio appartamento. Le loro espressioni sono representative di una conversasione di cinque minuti e sono la loro prima impressione di me. Per alcuni venditori sono diventata un buono amico, per altri sono scivolata via come una turista sconosciuta ancora una volta, ma ognuno mi ha influenzato in un modo che mi fa sentire una parte di Firenze. Scelgo di avere una relazione con Firenze invece di lasciare Firenze esistere solo come un posto dove ho vissuto.Artist StatementI know this city now. I know the curves, jagged edges and perfect symmetry that make up every footstep I take. I love and appreciate the great works of art. But this way of knowing is one-sided. How can a piece of architecture love me back? How fulfilling is a relationship in which only one piece of it is explored?To truly know a place one must know its people. The men of San Lorenzo Market will always initiate a conversation. It doesnt matter what the motive is for this conversation because it is an open invitation to engage as humans and move beyond simply knowing a place geographically. I took advantage of this and formed relationships with the vendors near my apartment. Their expressions are representative of a five-minute conversation and their first impression of me. To some of the vendors I have become good friends and others I slip by as an unnoticed tourist once again, but each have affected me in a way that makes me feel a part of Florence. I chose to have a relationship with Florence rather than it existing solely as a place I lived.
