Back in Milan!
Presenting Magmatic Parallelism exhibition. A sky blue
installation of light sculptures through a scenography
of deconstructed volcanic rock displacements.
Embracing the industrial blue tiles of the
space, the installation reinforces the site
specific tone by creating a backdrop where
blueness takes over the floor and narrow
pedestals, in contrast with the floating
dark objects. The central pieces of the
exhibition are light sculptures of parallel
stones arranged on aligned metal sheets that
challenge the material’s nature. Both vertical
and horizontal elongated pieces suspend
against the monochromatic space, creating
a volcanic landscape of hanging rocks. Studio
davidpompa brings its signature into the
physical space, setting materials into focus
by exploring the deconstruction of volcanic
events.
Different pedestals display atypical stone
objects, lined up and arising into a new
perspective, though a parallel process. By
giving the visitor an experience of lava
solidification and of the production process
of the pieces, the visitors is left visualizing
the connection between what they sense
and the aesthetics of the object.
The space is part of Alcova 2022 at
Via Simone Saint Bon in Milan as part of
Fuorisalone.
If you want to get to know more about the collection presented
The new light sculptures will create a
displacement of volcanic rocks suspended
in space. Carved into cylindrical shapes the
stones can be vertical or horizontal, bridged
by elongated or aligned metal sheets.
The collection is both aesthetically bold and
poetic at the same time, exploring the
relationship between the beauty of geometry
and the roughness of the rocks.
