Verified profile

With TOMB WRITER (Solve et Coagula) the artist transforms one of the rooms of Palazzo Re Rebaudengo into a tomb. The floor installation centered on the alchemical motto solve et coagula, "melt and coagulate", refers to the fact that everything must be broken down before it can be rebuilt. At the center of the installation is an Ouroboros, an ancient symbol depicting a snake or a dragon eating its own tail; in the margins instead there are some inscriptions on love and hate. The story of these signs is entrusted to a tomb writer, a collective and desecrating literary entity.
