Motu Proprio - Iron, polystyrene and plexiglass
An orb hurls towards an iron plate.
Behind the sphere, the movement traced by it in a dual function: as line of movement and structural line. It doesn't matter the point from which the ball is thrown, but specific investigation is the exact moment of impact.
Frozen, the impact creates a movement of lights and shadows on the metal sheet, breaking into the dead calm of slab and making it become a three-dimensional body.
Silently, the sphere impacts the surface and creates something else.
Sphere and plate, creator and created art, double symbolic reflection on artistic creation itself.
Isabella Nurigiani's artworks succeed in freezing the movement as only photography can do, abstracting the forms in lines and curves that keep in their quiet calm, the propelling force of the movement itself.
The moment of impact is an exact moment, in which the slab is still such but in the process of becoming something else, that is to say, it holds up the blow and maintains its essence, although, laying the surface of the sphere to its own, sketch of a new sphere.
