Wall Mapping

Nell'ambAs part of the "The Many Local Realities" Project, promoted by the MANEAT Local Museum System, tomorrow evening (starting at 8 pm), Artist Daniele Spanò will hold a wall-mapping performance entitled“Up to Here”on the facade of Palazzo Chigi, the seat of the Museo Agro Veientano [see news: la notizia Local Realities].

 

Daniele Spanò’s installation aims to transform the façade of the building into a luminous, dynamic surface for a story made of lights and sounds. Thus, the installation will not only showcase the façade of the building but will also develop a story between architecture and the issues investigated by the artist. The opportunity to identify a “different” function for architecture, the relation between intimate space (the building) and collective space (the piazza), the surface as an element separating the inside from the outside, and the relation between body and architecture are just a few of the issues addressed by the artist. 

 

A series of human figures will emerge from the darkness and move towards the audience. Their impact on the façade of the building will cause visual and audio distortions, while the architecture that hosts these deformations remains immutable. It’s as if these strange figures were trapped inside a percussion instrument and the impact of their bodies on the transparent membrane causes a series of mutations in the real world.
