superposition is a performative installation in which I slowly cover spaces, by applying paper tape’s strips horizontally, in order to obtain a thin and uniform membrane covering them completely. It is a slow and repetitive action which develops from the bottom to the top, simulating the movement of a printer and questioning time, space, context and artistic work as a social and economic practice.

oggetti scocciati #1 (natura morta con occhiali)

oggetti scocciati is a series of sculptures composed by objects covered with paper tape.

The artwork is a homage to the Italian painter Giorgio Morandi. The coating process, meticulously made with paper tape, refers to the essence of Morandi’s ritual, who used to cover with a layer of oil colours real bottles composing the set for his still lifes, before portraying them in his paintings.
