Nel blu dipinto di blu
Short description of the work
Explaining a sketch is not unlike explaining a song.
In a song the right arrangement of words can confer different meanings and stimulate creativity or arouse emotions. In the same way, in a sketch the position of lines and colours can define a new creative path.
“Penso che un sogno cosi’ non ritorni mai piu’,
mi dipingevo le mani e la faccia di blu.
Poi d’improvviso venivo dal vento rapito,
e incominciavo a volare nel cielo infinito.
Volare, oh oh,
cantare, oh oh oh oh.
Nel blu dipinto di blu,
felice di stare lassu’.
E volavo volavo felice
piu’ in alto del sole ed ancora piu’ su
mentre il mondo pian piano spariva
lontano laggiu’.
Una musica dolce suonava soltanto per me.
Volare, oh oh
cantare, oh oh oh oh.
Nel blu dipinto di blu
felice di stare lassu’. […]”
from Domenico Modugno song, “Nel blu dipinto di blu”

Michel Foucault
“What I’m trying to pick out with this term is, firstly, a thoroughly heterogeneous ensemble consisting of discourses, institutions, architectural forms, regulatory decisions, laws, administrative measures, scientific statements, philosophical, moral and philanthropic propositions–in short, the said as much as the unsaid. Such are the elements of the apparatus. The apparatus itself is the system of relations that can be established between these elements.” “The Confession of the Flesh” (1977) interview.

MUP Mappe Urbane Personali – Skopje
Alcuni degli edifici in stile brutalista e modernista di Skopje sono qui scomposti e rivisitati attraverso pattern colorati per offrire una nuova mappa urbana (e personale), sospesa tra memoria e presente. La rigenerazione e rivalutazione in chiave contemporanea del patrimonio architettonico brutalista, avviene qui attraverso un uso politico e poetico del colore (così come utilizzato nella recente “rivoluzione colorata” del Paese, durante le proteste del 2016), con le sue infinite possibilità di reinvenzione e recupero creativo del paesaggio urbano.

Per dieci minuti ho osservato l’icnografia dell’impianto idrometereologico di Krsto Todorovski, ho provato a disegnarlo a memoria. Ho riguardato per altri dieci minuti il disegno originario per disegnarlo ancora. Ho ripetuto l’esercizio più volte fino alla definizione di una forma autonoma. Ho affidato questa forma nuova alla fragilità di un palloncino che nel frattempo ha perso il fiato.

MEPSO lifting
Short description of the work
Quasi il 10% dei fondi del programma Skopje 2014 è stato impiegato per la costruzione di statue monumentali. La città si è popolata di persone inanimate: santi, poeti, re e guerrieri a cavallo. Nel frattempo le persone vere, con tutte le difficoltà, continuano a esistere.
Il piano di rinnovamento urbano Skopje 2014 comprende molti interventi di ricostruzione delle facciate. Un esempio è il rivestimento eclettico che ha subito l’edificio MEPSO: come in un lifting si sovrascrive prendendo come riferimento un’idea di bellezza generica e fuori contesto.

Short description of the work
L’operazione SK2014 si sta attrezzando per far scomparire testimonianze importanti del modernismo di Skopje. Ma c’è ancora qualche speranza di salvezza nella lotta tra il “bene” e il “lato oscuro”.
Si vuole creare idealmente un dialogo tra il progetto contemporaneo e gli edifici del moderno a Skopje. Una convivenza possibile che porti un valore aggiunto al patrimonio esistente e non il contrario.
L’intento del disegno è fornire uno spunto per cercare di far notare come una seconda vita sia possibile per determinati edifici che caratterizzano Skopje, senza doverne cancellare il carattere originale, basta vederli da un altro punto di vista.
La luna è davvero l’unica speranza per salvaguardare il brutalismo macedone?
Invertire il punto di vista può permetterci di vedere tutto in un’ottica differente.

Fragment S
Short description of the work
Slowly fired ceramic square (stoneware clay) up to 1020°. The final result is representing a section in concrete. Therefore, the viewer can touch, feel and connect to the material, and the object itself becomes a documented artefact. Related to the subject, the square with its silent but solid poetry, is directly taking part within the landscape in progress. The goal is to reach an emotional reaction and to transform the unfortunate detachment into a new consciousness. The piece has multiple dimensions, it is a drawing, collage, 3D document.

SKOPJE spaces
Short description of the work
Skopje. Una città di frammenti, simbolo della storia macedone che ha subito nel corso degli anni continue e successive metamorfosi. Dopo il terremoto degli anni ’60 il maestro Tange definisce un’idea utopica di una metropoli balcanica urbana caratterizzata da edifici brutalisti di forte spessore. Il mio collage cerca quindi di esprimere in maniera concisa l’idea urbana e architettonica dell’architetto attraverso la rappresentazione di alcuni edifici simbolo assieme allo skyline della città. Tange appare come il deus ex machina che definisce l’assetto del futuro, un’ideale di città moderna con un centro forte, infrastrutture e grandi edifici chiave.

Wallpaper
Short description of the work
The artwork is an elaboration of Janko Konstantinov’s iconic work built in the 80s: the Post Office and Telecommunications Center. It is intended to be a diptych showing two details of the building repeated ad infinitum. In the first we have the body of brutalist architecture, Konstantinov’s work on prefab modules, light and shadows. In the second contemporary technological adaptation resulting in a new pattern of air conditioning units that one can see on the façade. Based on two photographs taken by the author in 2016.
