Latent Corpus Callosum Discernment


"In this piece, Macri seems to be exploring the junction of self-identity, suggesting that we are not merely a sum of parts, but a complex fusion of thoughts, emotions, and experiences." 
~ Project High Art (Adamo Macri: A Multifaceted Exploration of Identity and Nature)

“The corpus callosum is part of the nerve tract that connects the left and right hemispheres of the brain, allowing for communication between the two. We cannot see or feel what is going on physiologically, although modern science is delving into it, nor does a full knowledge of the physical properties of the corpus callosum explain human character, decisions, motivations and desires. Macri is fully aware of the facts. In this portrait, however, he’s not illustrating a treatise about the brain, but depicting a metaphor of its essential mystery.”
