RIV, an acronym obtained from the synthesis of two terms that, when used separately, generate a dichotomy of perspective in the consideration of self, others and society.
RES is the reference for those who stop at the “skin of reality” and perceive the real as a “thing” to be owned and synthesized, thus giving up on creating emancipation and growth, both for themselves and for the community.
Stopping at the Res can generate a surrendered mental and intellectual state of mind to the excessive and repetitive use of superficial content devoid of real relevance. Such a condition fuels what is now called, with an eloquent neologism, brain rot.
INVISIBILIA is instead the term of reference for those who seek meanings “beyond the skin of the world,” with the intention of inhabiting society beyond cultural homogenization.
The term refers to a process of deepening, which is necessary to recover the deeper meaning of our identity, of others and of the world itself. Overcoming appearances and stereotypes means turning our gaze to otherness, to elsewhere, and going beyond simplification.
Invisibilia thus alludes to an engagement, moreover typical of art, in which processes of signification generate reflections that are also oriented toward the future. This approach turns attention to impoverished places, to marginality, to what is often – and erroneously – considered superfluous.
Invisibilia is a term that eschews the uniformity of meaning imposed as a recipe, to give rise to a reflection capable of generating common reasons for the care of a society founded on human dignity.
