Metamorfosi

For her first exhibition at Raffaella Cortese, Liliana Moro conceives a site-specific intervention that involves the gallery’s three spaces through the transformation of light. The title, Metamorfosi, stems from a reflection on change as a condition of the present: a process that runs through our way of inhabiting the world, our relationship with work, with others, with nature, and with ourselves. The light coming from outside is altered as it enters, modifying the perception of the spaces from within and denying, from the street, a direct view of the exhibition. The relationship between inside and outside is thus deformed: the space receives the exterior through the works, while the interior is transformed by filtered light, which becomes a perceptual threshold and introduces the visitor into an unstable condition.
