If everyone knows the world through his body, every act of knowledge is first and foremost an act of love. We know because we love. At the center of Luca Di Luzio’s artistic research is definitely this meaning of body but not only. Atlas Ego Imago Mundi comes from the assumption of the centrality of the body as a primordial force and creator of individual knowledge (I- my body) and collective knowledge (I- the body of the world). The artistic conception simplifies not only the metaphor of the body as an instrument of knowledge but does more, elevating it to the act of creating imaginary lands born from the body itself. The maps of Atlas Ego Imago Mundi are made from the imprint of some parts of the artist’s body returned to the paper and then elaborated in detail until the eye recognizes the appearance which is typical of the map. The body then at the same time creates me, because I know the world -the reality that surrounds me- through it but also the other, a world outside of me, not the same as me. The body invents a language not only artistic but pictorial, giving rise to a real writing (graphia) of the human because of man himself (ánthrōpos). Luca Di Luzio’s works are then anthropographies, born from the signs -the marks- of the artist’s body language.
