Presented during the 56th Venice Biennale, Marco Biagini’s High Visibility Burqa uses the image of the burqa as a deliberately ambiguous visual language rather than a direct commentary on religion. The performance opens a dialogue around visibility, identity, cultural boundaries, and the ways meaning shifts according to the viewer’s perspective.
