GET OFF THE GROUND- Mutant objects by Pietro Travaglini

Pietro Travaglini, young designer on the international scene, debuts with his creations at the Fuorisalone 2015
with a dramatic scenography of video-installations with photographies by Giovanni Gastel, the direction of Marco Pozzi and the coreography of Davide Montagna. 

ITEMS ON THE SCENE

Gastel’s photographs, reprocessed and abstractised, suggest the narration of the body as reflected in the outline of the works of Travaglini; of the many works exhibited, we could mention the library "Schiena", a dynamic combination of modular elements connected by disks and provided with light, the lamp/magazine-rack Onda, a project that recalls the curves and power of the element that gives it its name, in an almost Cubist fashion, the lamps of the Serie Tubino, that emphasise lightness in a self-supporting structure, sketching, like a pen mark, three-dimensional figures with a seemingly unstable balance, and the amazing seat-sculpture "Metropoli" that offers to those seating on it the ideal and unique "skyline" modelled by its shape.

Micro blasted steel, glass, MDF, leds, marble are the materials preferred by Pietro, who models the cold substance into poetry, transforms its rigidity into harmonic and anthropomorphic shapes, transforms the archetypal forms of the domestic design into art.
