Alessandro Scali | Exploring Hybridization and Post-Human Realities

My work stems from a desire to explore the boundaries between art, science, technology, and culture. At the core of my artistic practice lie two fundamental concepts: hybridization and the relativization of the human being. Through hybridization, I merge elements from different worlds — the organic and the artificial, the past and the future, the real and the imagined — creating works that challenge conventional perceptions and offer new ways of understanding contemporary reality.

Using tools such as artificial intelligence, glitch, and experimental media, I reshape artistic conventions, generating works that inhabit liminal spaces where transformation and mutation are constant. In this process, technology is not just a tool but a true creative partner, capable of transforming and redefining our relationship with the world.

Hybridization
Hybridization is not merely a fusion of disciplines or aesthetics; it is a fundamental process that allows me to blur boundaries and merge seemingly incompatible elements. By combining organic forms with digital structures, historical references with futuristic visions, my works transcend established categories, creating spaces where reality itself is questioned. Hybridization becomes a tool to explore the tensions between natural and artificial, challenging the viewer to engage with a reality that is constantly shifting and evolving.

The Relativization of the Human Being
A key theme in my work is the de-centering of the human being. In my post-human vision, humanity is no longer the master of its environment but part of a broader network that includes technology and nature. This relativization challenges anthropocentrism, inviting us to reconsider our place in a world where boundaries between human, machine, and organic matter are increasingly fluid. My art reflects this shift, portraying hybrid worlds in which humans, machines, and nature coexist, constantly interacting and reshaping one another.

Through art, I seek to challenge certainties and open new spaces for reflection on what it means to be human in an era where technology continually redefines our identity and role in the world. Each work is an act of exploration, an invitation to reconsider our perceptions, our beliefs, and our place in a universe where hybridization is not only an aesthetic process but a conceptual necessity.​​​​
