SWITZERLAND

In an imaginary landscape of supposed Western supremacy, the Superfictional World Atlas stages a 20-year long worldwide cartographic project, allegorical and potentially infinite, of which the Swiss-Brazilian artist presents the sixth and seventh chapters in Venice. The Miracle of Helvetia looks at Switzerland as a miraculous and “superfictitious” earthly paradise, where nature and technology, capitalism and democracy coexist in perfect and surreal balance, while Rome Talisman is a phantasmagorical representation of ancient Rome, portrayed as the quintessential symbol of political, cultural, and moral superiority.
