    Sania Nascarella's practice (born 2001 in Geneva) occupies a territory where material investigation meets psychoanalytic inquiry. Working primarily on black velvet, she creates works that exist in zones of suspended temporality, where images hesitate between appearance and withdrawal. This idea runs through her entire body of work: maintaining the image in a state of productive anticipation. Eleonora Bitterli, writing on Roadkill for Dinner (Ahoi, Lucerne, 2024), observes how Nascarella works with codes drawn from individual and collective memory. What Bitterli describes as "a projection surface for the darkly hidden," where familiar visual languages become sites of psychological tension. Antonia Truninger's text for setting suns sew together and apart (Toxi Space, Zurich, 2025) identifies a space between what is performed and what is felt, asking: "Did you fall in love with my image of you taking it to be yourself?" This collision between authentic experience and its representation runs through the investigation of ambiguous affects.
