Italian to English: Catarina Real's intro notes for xRivista Magazine, xr3 x=Playgrounds General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting
Source text - Italian Tinder è un’applicazione per incontri.
Per utilizzarla sono necessari solo due gesti: swipe left, swipe right, yes, no, match… or not.
Due gesti che costituiscono un codice di linguaggio proprio a Tinder. È a partire da qui, che Catarina ha deciso di lavorare sull’applicazione cercandone le regole di interazione, i pattern linguistici, le frasi e le parole ripetute: lo spazio virtuale di Tinder come una sorta di gioco di conversazione.
Il filo rosso che unisce tutti gli ultimi lavori di Catarina è la ricerca sul linguaggio, che può assumere diverse forme e declinazioni: quello su Tinder è uno dei progetti pop-up, come li definisce l’artista, che nascono da questo campo di indagine principale.
Nel playground, Catarina passa i primi giorni a organizzare i suoi pensieri e le sue intuizioni dando loro una forma fisica: il muro davanti alla sua scrivania si macchia di inglese e portoghese, di schizzi e testi, post-it e note(. È il modo dell’artista di verificare le sue intuizioni, cercando con gli occhi legami di senso tra due pensieri, tra due frasi, tra due parole. Il processo di creazione di Catarina passa per quelli che possiamo chiamare veri e propri studi, in linguaggio pittorico - mezzo espressivo che non abbandona mai il modo di pensare dell’artista.
Translation - English Tinder is a dating app. Using it only requires two gestures: swipe left, swipe right, yes, no, match...or not. Two gestures that constitute Tinder’s very own code of language. It is starting from this idea that Catarina has decided to work on the app, investigating its rules of interaction, its linguistic patterns, the ever-repeating sentences and words: Tinder’s virtual space as a sort of conversational game.
The fil rouge that links all of Caterina’s latest works is a research on language, which comes in different forms and variations: the one on Tinder is an example of what she calls her pop-up projects, which arise from this main field of investigation.
On the playground, Catarina spends the first days organizing her thoughts and intuitions by giving them a physical shape: the wall in front of her desk is scattered with English and Portuguese, sketches and texts, post-its and notes. This is the artist’s way to verify her intuitions, visually looking for a connection between two ideas, two sentences or two words. Catarina’s creative process goes through what can be literally called studies, in a pictorial language - an expressive medium that never abandons the artist’s way of thinking.
