“The object of study is the behavioural analysis of homosexual people during their time in ctc.
Legally active in too many locations, their intent is to adopt a pseudoscientific practice designed to change sexual orientation by repressing carnal impulses through aversion therapy, psychoanalysis, lobotomy, compulsive prayer, and religious actions such as exorcism. My name is Eugenio Monteleone, a creative director and stylist based in Milan. I need to create images to translate any situation sharp in my head. My modus operandi is based on the concept of amateurism: Language is born from the juxtaposition of contextualized and decontextualized aesthetic signs. The viewer has the opportunity to assimilate the work according to his personal skills and provide his own interpretation.”
