Speaking without uttering a sound is a mute thing. This way of communicating seems like a language made only for a few, however Sintora makes it universal, showing us «the beauty of the act itself».
Until 1700 A.D. the symbolisms were used in the Still Lifes, which in many cases by the passage of time have ceased to have it, since its meaning has not survived. The artist rescues and updates this way of making still lifes and does it in the most direct sense possible, by using the "Sign Language" of the deaf-mute and gestures of everyday life, which will probably change their meaning over the years, as has already happened before.
In “TALK TO ME” the words float around the images, emanate from them, sending messages to the viewer, in some cases of anger, in others of approval, of love, of power… reminding us that communication is also a role of art and they feed each other. The hands, a part of the body that we normally use for everything, are our tools and to which we do not pay special attention, here they are transformed in something extremely useful, delicate and beautiful.
