WAVE11

PLANIUM exhibits at dOT - Design Outdoor Taste (from 7 to 12 June 2022 - from 11.00 am  to 11.00 pm) in its fifth edition, the greenest event of the Milanese Fuori Salone, in which Italian design shows the synthesis of the product realization processes.

With the "Water" concept, dOT recounts experiences in the contract sector, proposing new "nature experiences" solutions.

PLANIUM in the prestigious setting of Milan Brera, inside the loggia of the Cloister in the historic Church of Saint Mark, whose square is the beating heart of the Brera Design District, welcomes and presents its new collection in a context of elegance, history, art and eco-sustainability METAL-MORPHOSIS. Water is interpreted by PLANIUM with its exclusive Metals.

Maurizio Galante and Tal Lancman have designed an installation that celebrates the weathering and metamorphosis process: 

“A symbolic tunnel, a very short/very long path. A space that recalls a jewelry box with its precious object. A moment, an instant to admire. Metal as a fragile and delicate material, time and its patina in this experimental project ". (M. Galante and T. Lancman)

Teeming with life, WAVE11 tells of a meeting between vegetal and animal life forms in growth, thus producing a variety of volcanic-like textures. Neither animals nor plants, they manifest a third nature. Metallic surfaces bubbling with textures testify of interactions among materials; a diversity of tissues reminiscent of a brimming coral reef, faraway lunar landscapes, or delicate lace-like textures formed over centuries.
Time and Energy are major factors in this experimental project, as the installation strives to tell of a transformation process. Savouring the moment of pause, as during a reading, when one takes a deep breath to better continue. It is therefore a question of fixing a moment in time, what the Japanese call ‘MU’, a moment so close to nothing that it becomes the whole.

Meeting with the Designers, Thursday June 9, 2022 at 6.00 pm.
