INCALMO
8-14 April 2019
rom the combination of the “gentle kindness of soft projects” with Murano blown glass and tempered glass, a collection of objects with a unique flavour
From the combination of the “gentle kindness of soft projects” with Murano blown glass and tempered glass, a collection of objects with a unique flavour is born in which contrasting tactile qualities establish a new dialogue: between hot and cold, soft and hard, shiny and opaque. These opposing aspects characterise the release of a collaboration between Colleoni Arte and Purho, world premiered at Milan Design Week 2019. Entrusted to the creativity of the architect Filippo Feroldi, Holo and Magus – respectively a series of tables and chandeliers shaped into new, geometrically rigorous forms, together with the new table version – will be presented in the spaces of the Lighea Onlus Foundation in the 5vie Art + Design district transformed for the Milanese event into a immersive environment characterized by warm colours, velvets, linens, silks with a variety of forms and textures. A dialogue between produce and environment, which tells of long investigations into places where the worlds of fabric and glass meet. A “Incalmo” — hence the name of the installation inspired by the technique of joining several pieces of blown glass — of skills and know-how deriving from the long association with Purho and Colleoni Arte from the world of high craftsmanship, bespoke interior design, artistic workshops and historic furnaces for a new way of home decoration.
