At the Politecnico di Milano opens "Suspended Space" by Carlo Bernardini, an intervention in fiber‐optic into the connection area between B1 and B2 buildings, at Bovisa Campus. The installation of crystallized light in physical form through fiber‐optic lines transforms the perceptive coordinates of visual space in a drawing that changes according to the points of view and the viewer's movements.
In the work of Bernardini the concepts of appearance/disappearance, materiality/immateriality determine the presence of a much more obvious sign in the dark as much as its physical structure is invisible to light. The artist thus gives priority to light and to the mental drawing that through it materialized, almost wanting to trace the invisible.
The intervention is presented by the School of Design‐Bachelor Degree in Interior Design at Politecnico di Milano, in parallel with the Milan Design Week. It is a preview of the intership workshop, investigation on enabling the intermediate urban spaces or "in‐between spaces", to be held on May 2017, curated by Giovanna Piccinno, President of the Bachelor Degree in Interior Design, and Isa Helena Tibúrcio, PhD student in Design.
