Since June 21, advertising posters
of Trivignano Dreamswill occupy the
60 billboards of the NDK Lovers Bridge in Sofia, starting from the National
Palace of Culture. In the meanwhile thousands of postcards will be distributed
all around the city.

 
The project created by the
PERSISTERS is supported by the Municipality of Sofia, the IIC Italian Institute
of Culture, the Sofia Month of
Photography and the Academy of Photography.
 
Trivignano Dreamsinvestigates the most stereotyped
aspects of the appearance. It
deals with the perception between the tourism and the territory, the journey
and the displacement, the west and the east, the centre and the boundary.
Codifying the image of a landscape
means assigning a mental space to it, but the east cannot exist if there is no
center.
Offer the absence of what is clearly
recognisable means to contemplate its presence: this consideration became the
basis for this project.
 
Trivignano is a small country
village very close to Slovenia. With the fall of the border between Italy and
Slovenia, all this region, from being the extreme marginal land, suddenly
become, in everyone's perception, the main door towards the Balkans.
 
PERSISTERS realized a series of
site-specific performances inside Trivignano, to trace the paths of the perfect
holiday, following the map of mind landscapes of the western world. In this
manner a combination of beach and mountain resort town was born, complete with
an international airport, attractions such as theatres, a trendy and eventful
night life, a luxury lodge safari, ans also places dedicated to well-being such
as the Spa.  With all these images they
create tourist promotional materials and a website  www.trivignanodreams.comof 
the place that doesn’t exist. All
the inquiries and the applications received become part of the project.
 
Trivignano Dreams was presented at MADRE
Museum of Naples, at  SpilimbergoFotografia08,  at the 53rd International Art 
Exhibition of
the Venice Biennale, at BIT 2010 International Tourism Exchange Milan, and at
The Promenade Gallery, Vlore, Albania.
 
PERSISTERS is an artistic duo
composed by the sisters Isabella and Tiziana Pers. Itunveils the mechanisms of 
recognition of the images already gained and
consigned to the collective memory. It upsets clichè, status symbols and
platitudes using their same language and suspending in a far-out space the
relative preconceptions.
