NYC | Project
The concept is a study-inhabitable and transportable cells, as an artist’s residence to develop the exhibition’s works and the display set. All the sculpture / installation materials have been founded in the Environments Furniture’s boothset during the design week in Milan in April 2010. The artist has built a case by assembling the floor boards, reinforced with beams that serve as a support for the floor itself. New York is the goal of every artist, especially if emerging as a point of departure or arrival. The cox installation pilgrimage is a testament to how long and difficult this process. Once in New York the case became the living and working space where to build a few new works using local materials, like fabric of military tents in which the company creates its own padding to cover of the structure.The focus idea is to give new life to all the material that has been made available to the artist.
