Installative drawing, composition for cello
300x600 cm, 3.36’
Dry clay, black velvet, cello
2024
Created on the occasion of my solo exhibition
in Cesena, the Spazio dei Mille Spazi project
represents an experimental exploration of
the relationship between home and dreams,
inspired by the ideas of Gaston Bachelard.
Made with local clay and shaped like a starry
sky, the project aims to create a “house
universe” of the mind—a symbolic space that
offers refuge and protection to any being.
Each star becomes a window into a dream,
a point of light connecting the intimacy of
personal shelter with the vastness of the
universe, a place of quiet and boundless
inspiration.
Accompanied by a composition for cello,
this installation-drawing not only explores
Bachelard’s ideas and my perception of
space but also witnessed an unexpected
and symbolic event: a cicada underwent
its metamorphosis, unfolding its wings
right within the work. This small miracle
reinforced my belief and hope that art
can be both a refuge and a catalyst for
transformation, for any being, regardless of
its origins.
