Simone Berti, Pipe Dream. “Cambiare il mondo con un vaso di fiori”, Pierluigi and Natalina Remotti Foundation-City of Camogli, 2010-2011
In Simone Berti’s visionary world, terracotta pipes worked on lathes and fitted to sharp-edged sheets of aluminium look like vases for holding the marble dust used to create artificial flowers. Simone Berti’s imposing sculptural structures, like spectacular monuments devoted to flower vases, create a factory-like atmosphere and appear to be mysterious hieroglyphics from some phantasmagoric industrial age gone by.
Pipe Dream by Simone Berti was prototyped in Albisola (Italy) in 2010 on occasion of the exhibition “Changing the world with a vase of flowers”, MUDAC-Museum of Design and Contemporary Applied Arts, Lausanne, 2011; Pierluigi and Natalina Remotti Foundation-City of Camogli, 2010-2011; Italian Cultural Institute of Madrid-Italian Embassy in Spain, 2010.
