Suttsteve is the nickname of Steve Sutton, a popular video blogger on YouTube, yet an ordinary individual outside that realm.
In one of his posts on the website he talks about the enhanced benefits of being part of a large virtual community.
His monologue has been screened in a deserted town square of South Italy a few minutes before the church bells rang the afternoon service.
The short speech has been appropriated and treated before the screening, which happened as a short performative act.
In this video piece, a subtle change in lighting and the complete dissociation between the individual
depicted and the location, leads the viewer to question the relation between architectural setup and personal identity.
