Dystopia is not, as often understood, the opposite of utopia but its essence: a cry of alarm, a moral denunciation of a reality that risks turning into a nightmare. This is Filippo Tincolini's intention with "Dystopian Animals."
His works are laden with symbolism, featuring animals assuming roles and situations otherwise human, reflecting the incongruities and contradictions of our time, a world where the natural and the artificial intertwine, challenging our perception.
Two realities coexist: the one narrated by Filippo Tincolini and the one we live in. Neither reality nullifies the other, neither can exist without the other, neither is ultimately truer than the other. It's the triumph of imagination, opposing passivity and invoking a future where art and humanity can still assert their ability to reinvent and heal our wounded world.
In this context, Tincolini's work reveals itself not only as artistic testimony but also as an act of resistance against apathy and acquiescence. "Dystopian Animals" urges us to question our ethics and values, proposing a critical vision of the future that, though dark and complex, is imbued with the hope that art can serve as a catalyst for change and healing. With these works, Tincolini confirms the role of art as an essential tool for understanding and transforming our reality.
