Senza Tempo
Senza Tempo is a monumental textile artwork created during Frieze London Art Fair 2024 in collaboration with Pasqua Wines and hosted at the Italian Embassy and at Saatchi Gallery. Informed by a palindromic poem written by Lonardi, the piece celebrates the infinite thread that connects us all with past traditions and future generations. The artwork was created using a combination of digital and handcrafted work. Printed on knitted polyester, the piece was enriched on both sides with 52 hours of hand-made inserts of precious fabrics such as organza, chiffon, and velvet. It also includes details like the silver silk cut-out letters that form the poem “Infinitamente”.
