In "On These Streets," Andrea Ciulu embarks on a nuanced exploration of memory, particularly focusing on the intriguing concept of artificial memories, those vivid, imagined experiences that, despite never having been lived, resonate deeply as if they were one's own. Growing up in Italy during the 1990s, Ciulu was captivated by the allure of hip-hop and urban culture, primarily emanating from the United States. This fascination was not merely passive; it was an immersive experience facilitated by music videos, songs, and lyrics that painted vivid narratives of life in distant American cities. These artificial memories, interwoven with Ciulu's real experiences, form the cornerstone of this series.
