About the WAG:
Due to our needs that seem to be increasingly handheld, WAG was born
on 2009! The Widget Art Gallery is a mini single art gallery room fitting into
people's pocket. Every month, the WAG hosts a solo digital art exhibition
related to its dynamic site-specific context.
So the WAG works both as a sort of kunsthall showing temporary exhibitions and
also as museum conserving all the past shows inside an online archive that
creates a permanent collection. WAG website

About the artwork:
"DIREZIONI" by Federico Pavano. September 1st. - November 1st. 2018
Text by Giulia Giambrone and Federico Pavano
Pavano’s gif-artwork conceived for the Widget Art Gallery is an explicit
reference to the invisible, but somehow perceptible and verifiable dimensions
in which the souls are meant to reside.
Here dimensions are nothing that directions to travel both in the physical and
sentimental space. The awareness of possibilities increases depths allowing to
follow unexplored paths.
WAG's virtual extent is subordinated to the inner space but simultaneously it
is objective because of the geometry of the room-box that breaks up, changing
its setting.
The human gaze of the head, literally abandoned into a sort of metaphysical
floor transforms the virtual setting into the tangible one.
Pavano & Giambrone are both students in Visual Arts.
