Doppiamano

In the unique dance of two left hands, one real and one artificial, the authentic immerses itself in an imitation of the artificial. In this unconventional encounter, an osmotic exchange unfolds between the natural and the artificial. Contrary to convention, it is the real hand that appears to mirror the artificial. This prompts a profound exploration of the blurred boundaries between reality and imitation. To what extent is our projected world a reflection of the artificial, and how much do the characteristics of its synthetic counterpart get absorbed by the natural hand? Can we dismantle the traditional definitions of reality and its reproducibility in the face of this evocative conjunction?
