Installation Diary-Papers (Bacca)

Work description and interpretation
Diary-Paper installation. Hung on the wall with steel pins.

«At the exhibition at BACCA 1010 in 2001 the works on paper are still exhibited in grid form but with a greater space between each one, and with a display – created by the artist Giordano Pozzi – closer to that of oil on canvas. The emphasis is placed on the singularity of the object, despite the grid form remaining in place to evoke the unitary sense of the whole. Widening the margins means the sense of the reiteration of the gesture is less at the forefront.»
Barbara Garatti, in "Astratte" (Electa, 2024)
Series description and interpretation
Paper’s Specific projects
The sequence of the Papers occasionally takes a different order, as if to say that the order of things is arbitrary and can be reorganised differently every time.
These works are used like fragments, mosaic pieces to relate with different spaces.
A pictorial substance produced inside my studio that relates to external spaces becomes a pictorial gesture within the architecture.  The number, type and colour of the pieces of paper used is determined by the space that houses them.
