Created to be seen in the dark by ultraviolet light Cirri comes as a visionary apparition of “light severity”. The simplicity of the forms, the innocence of the composition and the grandiosity of the size evoke in the spectator contemplative abandonment. Composed of 144 modules of different sizes, forms and colours, the installation is based on Fibonacci’s numerical theory and set on the platform symbolic of the tilted square.
Cirri’s space is infinite, deflagrated in fragments, “stones suspended” that move and swing, are interwoven, rotate, and change colour. The physical space of the installation vanishes as container and becomes the interior space.
Cirri speaks in the silence, stripping the spectator’s soul, moving him inside, questioning him on the “truth” of human existence.
