Romina Falconi’s artistic installation in Milan
Those who follow her – or he heard of it – knows well how much Romina Falconi, Roman singer born in 1985 known to most for participating in 2012 in X Factor (was part of Morgan’s team), keeps the taste for the provocation. The contents of her records speak for her (“in certain dreams naked singing”, it was the title of the 2018 collection) and songs (“Saponette”, “Maniaca”, “I include you”). Now Falconi has inaugurated in Milan, at the Santa Radegonda Gallery, a few steps from the Duomo, an urban installation. “The Wall of Rottincore” entitled it and called it “a visual confession space for those tired of the banal advice”.
The project is designed to promote the album “Rottincuore” (Freak & Chic / Ada Music Italia / Warner Music), released in May. The installation is presented as “A symbolic and at the same time real place, where there are all those unsolicited tips, judgments and phrases that are often addressed to us and that end up weighing as boulders. The first unsolicited tips present in the installation were selected by the community of www.rottincuore.com And they will join those left by the public passage “. Speaking of the Falconi initiative he comments:
Those phrases written on the wall are not mine: they are a choir. Often they seem advice, but in reality they are confessions, supplications, convictions. My audience entrusted me to how to relieve a sin to the dearest person: with shame and desperate sincerity. I put them on the walls of the metro because the city must mirror itself in the hypocrisy which, day after day, calls normal: in the advice they crush, in the imposed masks, in the obliged smiles. It is a cruel and necessary experiment, because a caress arrives to those who are tired of wearing the mask.
On September 19, the singer will perform in Rome, on the stage of Largo Venue. The 21 will instead be staged in Milan, at the General Warehouses.
