To emphasize the post-mortem life is the same as to deny the life itself

The whole exhibition is based on its title. 

There is contained in some way the relation to the reality. My approach is to work with the title a way criticizing a disregarding of the life. It is actually the criticism of a maneuver, of superstition and raping of the consciousness. My own experiences of non-reality are moving into the reality.

To emphasize the post-mortem life is the same as to deny the life itself
In her work, Cornaro uses found objects imbued with symbolic potential or emotional value, which she presents in different types of display and media to reveal the subtle shifts of meaning provoked by processes of reproduction and translation.
Borrowed from domestic, decorative or functional contexts, these artefacts are often linked to Western culture as a means of power, their combination and arrangement in the artist’s work invites spectators to question the relationships between systems of representation and our understanding of the world.
