Mario Trimarchi "Barricades"

The Compasso d'Oro award-winning designer and architect presents a series of refined objects and drawings dedicated to the theme of barricades, small architectures that explore the concept of unstable balances: stones, stones, fragments of marble and thousand-year-old wood, silhouettes of leaves and birds, semi-transparent crystals and brass scaffolding. The drawings, which for Trimarchi are a means to "understand things better", and the sculptures on display tell how the accumulation of materials and experiences can generate poetic structures, amulets against the fatality of life.
