“BORDERLIFE” Lodi - Milan, 2016

Artist Biancoshock considers himself a classic activist and a performative artist. He refers to his art as "Ephemeralism" - the purpose of producing works of art that have to exist briefly in space but limitlessly in time through the photography, the video and the media.

His 2016 art installation “Borderlife” was his call to a bigger awareness. He transformed 3 vacant subterranean maintenance vaults into miniature underground rooms in the Lodi district of Milan. The spaces included a tiny kitchen, with hanging utensils and a wall clock; a bathroom, with an attached showerhead and towel rack; and a small, wallpapered hallway featuring a painting and hat.

It’s pointing a finger toward a social injustice - a hidden reality that most remain unaware of. The living conditions of those forced to occupy confined spaces - with a focus on those who live underground, behind manholes.

This is where street art becomes more than a IG photo opportunity laying in wait. It becomes a chance to educate, to tell the story of the those who have no voice and no platform on which to be heard.

“If some problems can not be avoided, make them comfortable. Intervention that, parodically, speaks about people forced to live in extreme conditions, even coming to live in manholes. An example of inspiration is Bucharest, where more than 600 people live underground, in the sewers.” - Biancoshock

Sometimes I wonder whether strangers you meet day to day remember an encounter with you enough for it to trigger a small memory for them when they think back on it later.

A change in season often fills me with a sense of melancholy despondency and loss of self. To alleviate this I recommend plenty of tea while wrapped up in cosy blankets, the discovery of new places/hobbies/people/artists, small amounts of self reflection (I like to write my thoughts down on paper) and long walks in windy places. You'll fill your days and find yourself soon enough :)

The fact you took the time to personally message me this says you are such a lovely person and it probably means more than you realise to receive such a sweet message. Thank you kind person, whoever you are. I will try all of these things :) xx
