Verso

Monastero Bormida AT
2011

The “Verso” installation suggests a link between internal and external space. Inside a medieval tower, two rooms are crossed by three lines that invite the eye to look outside towards the river and the nearby mill.
“Verso” celebrates the elements of the area: water, earth, wine, corn. These elements, their scents, redefine new boundaries, attempt a de-territorialization of everyday space, enter it in order to re-define it.
In the room beneath, a line of earth cross the space without relation with outside but in realtion with the roots coming out from the up floor. Above, a line of corn, pierces the floor and leads to a window, outside there is the mill.
A plastic tube knotted in the middle - one half filled with wine and the other with water crosses both rooms and lead to another window, outside there is the river.
