IN(T)ERNO

In(t)erno is your “own private sky”
Milano, 2010

The interior project stages the ambiguous scale of the design. Through the representation of some absolute living environments, it explores the relationship between interior and exterior, design and landscape, architecture and disguise. Some identical polygonal shells, all suspended in space, enclose within them scaled-down representations of imaginary architectures and landscapes. The viewer has an initial experience at the scale of the object, observing the solids from the outside. But by inserting their head inside the polyhedra, they begin a dual experience. The first, active, allows them to immerse themselves completely in the representation and observe the environments contained within the shells from a close distance. The second, passive, occurs when the viewer, with their head inside one of the shells, seems to wear a huge mask, thus becoming a spectacle themselves for other observers.

Here is the perfect human moving / Look at him now / And now / Look at him all the time // The perfect human can move in a room / The room is boundless and radiant with light / It is an empty room / Here are no boundaries / Here is nothing // The perfect human in a room with no boundaries / And nothing // Today, too, I experienced something / I hope to understand in a few days // Around my left hand was shining / A ring of hazy with flames // Why is fortune so capricious? / Why is joy so quickly gone? // Why did you leave me? / Why are you gone? // Very very delicious
