Per filo e per segno – 6/12. Paola Pezzi

Overview

From 6 June to 2 July 2026, BUILDING BOX presents the sixth event in the exhibition project Per filo e per segno. Percorsi di arte tessile in Italia, with the installation Mobilità fissa (2026) by Paola Pezzi (Brescia, 1963).

Created ten years apart, the two works by Paola Pezzi [Passamaneria rossa (2015) and Feltro rosso (2025)] develop a constant and coherent investigation into the relationship between gesture, matter and time, the founding principle of her work: an uninterrupted process of transformation in which each work interacts with the previous one, in an organic, fluid development made of continuous metamorphoses.

Paola Pezzi's works are constructions that deal with simple materials, from felt to rubber, from polyurethane to wood, or domestic objects (pencils and woollen gloves), as if they were carriers of memory and energy. Folded, compressed, wrapped by repeated gestures, each of her works makes time visible and retains the traces of the gesture.

In the works exhibited at BUILDING BOX, spirals, circles, spheres and vortices emerge as archetypes.
