Telefono by Oriella Montin

Artwork Description

Original title of the artwork: Telefono / Telephon

"Oriella Montin proposes with her sculptures a unique reinterpretation of this approach, transforming the object trove already ready to use found in the markets in a crystallization of its original functional purpose. In the era of fashionable smartphone, with the demodè phone entirely covered with gauze, the artist interacts with the observer through photographs-finds of unknown families, according to the practice of his poetry, adding and adding excerpts of letters steeped in words, dates to remember, sentences, com-munications, as if the sculpture were a viaticum to relive past conversations." - Francesca Baboni
