Trasformazione per due
Transformation for two
The motivation of the project came from working with two elementary and useful
pieces of the Unidee studio space, the desk and its bench. This elements were
big enough to split them in pieces, so that they could become another useful
piece of furniture, or instead, useless enough as punctuating elements qwithin
the studio space, open to further events and appropriations by its inhabitants.
As it got colder in the studio several of us found comfort with the drapes and
fabric samples from Cittadellarte’s factory contacts that had been lying
around. They seemed to reconcile and mediate the user to the furniture.
The actions in the presentation, done by two, seek to echo these possibilities
with both the furniture and the fabrics.
