Exhibition "The man who sat on himself"

As the concluding project of the curatorial residence programme, hosted by Fondazione Sandretto re Rebaudengo in Turin, Italy, we created a choreographed exhibition featuring artworks of various media that staged the visitor in the centre of their experience.

Riccardo Arena traced the epic journey of a mystery enigmaacross the landscape of his metaphysical environment, while Matilde Cassani pulled the ceiling down to the floor in tendrils and tendons that conceal and connect. Throughout the space Tomaso De Luca’s choreographed arrangement of panels played with the absence of a single protagonist. In remembrance, a flickering light bulb spoke of the inventions and misadventures of Riccardo Giacconi’s great-grandfather. As a means of interpreting and reconfiguring the artists’ ideas, Matteo Stocco re-imagined the exhibition through visualising alternative spectres of space, creating a potentially infinite sequence of digital possibilities.
