BA Exhibit Design Studio
2024
An exhibit design for Arturo Martini and Elio Armano's works at the former San Pietro convent in Asolo, developed within IUAV's exhibit design studio. Reflective plinths create a kaleidoscopic effect, merging terracotta sculptures with visitors' movements and generating an immersive scenography where art and reality continuously overlap.
The material strategy amplifies the works' primitive materiality. Reflections dissolve boundaries between static objects and living bodies, constructing a dynamic crowd of hybrid figures that symbolically engage the public. Space becomes an active medium, extending the sculptures' presence beyond their physical limits.
This approach transforms the exhibition into a field of perceptual interaction. Rather than isolating artworks on traditional pedestals, the spatial arrangement positions them within a relational environment where light, reflection and movement activate latent dialogues between Martini and Armano's primitivism and contemporary experience.
