UNTITLED#8

The third chapter of a series that continues to question the relationship between matter and figure, this exhibition expands into sculpture. Johannes Leidenberger presents an installation of an almost architectural character: a structure of black metal profiles supports an elongated white form suspended in precarious balance between constructive rigour and organic gesture — a body stripped down to skeleton and tension. Gilda Mautone brings a hybrid object into the show, a motorcycle helmet transformed with lace, woven wool and bolts: the iconography of protection and speed is contaminated by domestic, decorative materials, short-circuiting armour and ornament, aggression and care. Ade Quercianera remains faithful to her painterly language, with a large canvas of deep blues where spectral forms barely surface from the dark ground, a work built through layering and subtraction rather than defined image. Three different practices — construction, assemblage, painting — converge on a shared idea of form as an unstable, never fully resolved process
