CICCONI XYZT – CADOGAN SOLO MILANO

  

 

EDOARDO DIONEA CICCONI – “XYZT” 
CADOGAN Gallery (Milano)
Via Bramante, 5 Milano

The title of the series “XYZT,” which deciphers as a code, has a specific meaning: “XZT” is for SPACE (the axis of a grid), plus “T” for TIME. Influenced by contemporary physics, the artworks attempt to summarise the concepts of space and time and to establish a dialogue between their phases (past, present, and future) and their changes. The mirrored surface on the front is a straight and sharp surface with a peculiarity: at times, it reflects reality by distorting it. The image flexes and then returns to its initial appearance. 

These “kinetic mirrors” actually move, catching the viewer by surprise, whose image becomes distorted, disappears, and then reappears. Like a sort of black hole, where everything becomes dense inside and where, even today, no one knows where this totality will end up.

The installation has a dual identity achieved through different uses of lights. The ‘second stage’ of the installation will be revealed on April 10th. A mesmerizing beam of light that from the ceiling appears to be sucked into the artwork like a black hole and will be reflected on the other wall, creating a visual experience of the event horizon.
