Statement

Daniela Federighi is a Brazilian visual artist whose work explores and experiments with material, sensory, and almost theatrical encounters in everyday life. Her attentive observation of daily surroundings focuses mainly on spatiality tied to her lived experiences along the way, while also flirting with a sense of fable and possible fiction.

She is currently building a body of work that emerges from the collection of personal records and ordinary materials with constructive and poetic potential — elements that are often manipulated, displaced, and juxtaposed. Formally, she works with photography, video, text, sculpture, collage, and assemblage, connecting analog and digital media in a kind of non-linear visual-material diary while also building bridges between seemingly disconnected fragments of the landscapes she collects.

GlogauAIR Project

During my time at GlogauAIR, I intend to deepen my practice of observing my surroundings by establishing new dialogues with a completely different context: the city of Berlin. As a foreigner, I expect visual and linguistic contrasts to emerge as meaningful triggers for investigation, and I’m curious about the kinds of encounters that may arise while wandering through the city.

I’m interested in exploring tensions between materials and themes, which will likely be addressed through the use of found objects, personal items, and records in different media. Conceptually, I’ve been recently drawn to the idea of “trips,” understood as traveling, walking, imaginary journeys, and how that might relate to more intimate concerns, especially those connected to “home.” In this sense, I see the experience at GlogauAIR as a meaningful opportunity to potentially unfold this line of thought. I envision this body of work as a visual narrative of this period spent away from home.
