What is it like to be in a relationship and be constantly separated from your lover? Through the artist’s long-term project Fragments, she explores how it feels to be together and apart as lovers. The long wait. The longing to be reunited. The joy of being together. The special moments of everyday life along with the anxiety and pressure of an imminent separation. Fragments is a story of a chase, a love letter slowly unfolding across the sea.
Three cities, four countries, two continents. The starting point in London then New York – Berto’s adopted home, Dublin – John’s homeland in Ireland and the North East part of Italy, where the artist grew up. These are the emotional landscapes of a tale of love and trust, friendship, separation and reunion.
