Ali di pietra” Marisa Zattini

Tresigallo | Italy

 

 

 

 

Ali di Pietra by Marisa Zattini, curated by Arch. Andrea Pompili was presented as part of the “Metaphysical Days” in Tresigallo, Italy. The exhibition unfolds from a central image—an eagle’s feather inscribed as a calligram on a 19th-century letter—creating a dialogue between text, image, and memory.

Writing transforms into a visual form, where the word becomes a sign in a continuous, reciprocal movement. The works develop through an interplay of light and shadow, enriched by symbolic elements such as the star-marked hourglasses Fragilis mortalitas, evoking the tension between finite time and timeless consciousness.

Ali di Pietra becomes a meditation on time and transformation, in which sign, matter, and imagination converge into a suspended, contemplative space.
