Interlacer

Commissioned by: IN Residence

2012

For the Another Terra exhibition during the Salone del Mobile, curated by Barbara Brondi and Marco Rainò, we were commissioned to create a small piece relating to the concept of a travel to a new planet which offers similar conditions as Earth;

Perceiving the unknown interlaces our personal/collective memories, experiences and sensory vocabulary. We use reflections to express the indescribable and cope with its significations to our own existence.

The mirror strips on both sides of the Interlacer’s transparent surface produce partial impressions of the user and its surroundings.

At the same time of being a metaphor/reminder of ones individual presence it may also function as a personal screen – allowing a gradual exploration of the unfamiliar environment while being less exposed to it.
