Art is increasingly alienated from social life, few are interested in artistic research, and the market devours works and transforms them into mere furnishing accessories. The artist wanders lost in an age that knows the prices of everything but not its values, in which the circuits of knowledge are disconnected from those of power. Scarlet lives the naiveté of his beliefs, enveloped in an overly stressed, violent, and distracted city, attempting to assert denied evidence through irony. His works confront stereotypes, expressing his discomfort with a nation that should protect civil rights more effectively. The value of a democracy is not seeking consensus, but the ability to express dissent. Scarlet's research collides with a country overwhelmed by small and large opportunisms and incapable of living up to its artistic and cultural tradition. His self-portraits are a staging of the nation's failure. She wears clothes backward and superimposes fragments of 19th-century paintings, images that seek to stimulate the collective imagination and provoke a reaction. The artist offers her body, which must adapt to social mores that are no longer acceptable, to models that imprison Italians in narrow-minded behaviors, unable to dialogue with the past. Her work explores the concept of normality and diversity, dramatically affirming the loss of self through the obliteration of facial features. The artist's physical presence challenges the nothingness of our present, confronts the viewer with the contradictions of our time, and compels them to pay attention. Scarlet's simple and spontaneous language is an invitation for everyone to enter her world, to share her struggles, to experience her pain at the discrimination that continually persecutes minorities. These works are part of a broader exploration of sexual diversity, stereotypes, and the concept of normality that Scarlet has pursued for many years through exhibitions and performances at prestigious venues such as the PAN, the Madre, and the Academy of Fine Arts in Naples. Her project is still in progress, and we await future developments.
