From the video Centro di Permanenza Temporanea
by Adrian Paci
Watch it here
About:
Paci’s video Centro di Permanenza Temporanea, named after an Italian refugee camp, takes viewers to a runway in California where a group of people (many of them Mexican) are seen mounting an aircraft stairway. The camera pans out, however, to reveal that there is no plane and that these passengers are stranded, queued up in stunted ascension. Paci focuses on their passive faces: a woman squinting against the sun; a man’s hair blowing in the wind. Meanwhile, other planes are seen in the background, though the travelers’ flight never arrives. Paci’s work reflects his own unsettled history as a displaced person—a situation far from rare in our ever-globalizing world.
