Matteo Norzi, collaborating with Hilario Isola, has been developing and researching various modes of expression through sculpture. Their fourhanded artistic endeavour explores different fields of representation as light distortion directly on expositive sites or semantic manipulation on common-use objects. The intent is to compose installations, which are able to narrate on the prints that man leaves behind, investigating by deep ensouling intentions and, zooming out, as a journey to limbos where memories feather reality borders and recook them. Two points of view aim at transforming the work into an evocative commentary where both presence and absence redefine spaces. Rediscovering forgotten instinctual desires and longing to escape from the artificial express themselves in a dialectic nature. This ambiguity is nonetheless concurrent with the ephemeral nature of the human being and ineluctable alterations of our habitats. ‘Time erosion’ and ‘space taming’ are the conceptual terms and formal instruments the artists utilize in order to lead viewers towards a broader reflection on trespassing, destination, and purpose.

FALL
It is a self-generated work. With no beginning and no end. But it’s also a work about fragility, about life and decline. The idea is to lead towards reflections on mankind and nature, between transitivity and circularity, to express a sense of self-destructive unavoidability. A forced autumn of an evergreen plant as the fall from the garden of Eden.
