Epifània | Edoardo Milesi & Archos

An ephemeral cloud composed of petals made from production waste materials is arranged around a core that seems to come alive as the day unfolds. Suspended near the top of the arches of Porta Sant'Alessandro in Città Alta, it hovers in the air, releasing voices, sounds, lights, colors, and images gathered in its wanderings in an increasingly unpredictable world. The poetry of a starry sky, a green meadow, the unknown life of the abyss, the solidity of the earth, the calm of a breath of wind, or a light summer rain is suddenly shaken by unforeseen scenarios. The result is a three-dimensional object that creates a nebulous atmosphere. A sky to admire from outside the gates, but also to traverse with one's nose held high.

At the first light of dawn, the cloud manifests itself through its formal and sculptural presence. Small movements affect the petals floating in the air, emitting original voices and sounds, at times surprising. And when the light of winter days fades, Epiphany tells of the four elements: AIR, FIRE, EARTH, WATER. Immutable and dramatic.

Surrounding everything are the Plural nonsense Fairy Tales by Giorgio Milesi, which land on the tables of bars and restaurants in the vicinity, impressed on fragments of the cloud. On the front, the text describing it, on the back, the 160 fairy tales screen-printed with sympathetic ink visible only in special environmental situations. Unique and rare handmade fabric pieces to take away and preserve as small works of art.
