CICCONI @ CADOGAN GALLERY LONDON
Repost from Cadogan Gallery:
“We are excited to present an exhibition by Edoardo Dionea Cicconi in June, curated by Maria Abramenko and Freddie Burness.
The Italian artist works with installations, sculptures, sound and other media. Addressing universal themes in an interactive way, he tries to find a synthesis between art & science, investigating the concept and perception of time.
Cicconi’s latest series “XYZT”, influenced by contemporary physicists such as Carlo Rovelli, attempts to summarise the concepts of space and time and to establish a dialogue between its phases (past, present and future) and their changes.
The installation is a sculpture with a mirrored surface on the front. The surface, straight and sharp, has a peculiarity: at times it reflects reality by distorting it. The image flexes and then returns to its initial appearance.
This “kinetic mirror” actually moves, catching the viewer – whose image becomes distorted, disappears, and then reappears – by surprise.
Like a black hole, viewers will “disappear” and blend in with the surrounding space”
