Ho tagliato la corda presents a terracotta chain known for its delicacy and transience. It futilely restrains a limp latex arm, which lies lifeless like a second skin or a discarded layer. This arm, devoid of life and stretched out on the floor, serves as a reminder of a presence that has vanished. The work becomes a voice for the futile search for control and possession, evoking a mixture of sensuality, eroticism, and forced violence. What remains are traces of a past moment and the heavy evidence of self-sabotage, symbolising the emotional struggle to break free from tangled and complex situations.

Alice Capelli, born in 1997 in Lodi, Italy, lives and works in Milan. She graduated from the Brera Academy of Fine Arts with a master's in painting and from NABA with a Master's in Art and Ecology. She has explored topics such as sustainability, environmental and social ecology, and concepts like posthumanism and antispecism. Her creative process began in 2018 with painting, and over time, she has ventured into different fields, bringing her closer to performance, video, installation, and sculpture.

Prerezala sem vrv predstavlja verigo iz terakote, materiala, znanega po krhkosti in minljivosti, ki neuspešno vklepa mlahavo roko iz lateksa. Ta leži brez življenja, kot druga koža ali odvržena plast. Ta roka, brez življenja, iztegnjena na tleh, služi kot opomin na prisotnost, ki je več ni. Delo predstavlja glas brezplodnega iskanja nadzora in posedovanja, vzbuja zmes čutnosti, erotike, prisile in nasilja. Kar ostaja, so sledovi preteklih momentov in znamenja samosabotaže, ki simbolizirajo čustveni boj za osvoboditev iz kompleksnih situacij.
