Clemente CiarroccaThe JoysAktionshaus, Berlin

Representing the world perceived from within a personal boundary, the mix is a psychotic-ecstatic layering of archival sounds, field recordings, sex tapes, social media autoplays, music tracks abruptly cut short, and the obsessive repetition of the closing line from the exhibition’s companion text: “My heritage products have helped shape the world I live in today and continue to resonate with the public, and inspire you.” For this audio-visual presentation, the soundscape is paired with footage capturing in circular motion a bush of roses containing simultaneously all three stages of a flower — buds, full bloom, and fading — originally filmed by the artist in Rome, May 2025. Selected still frames from this footage were printed and displayed in the original exhibition.
