Digital Sketchbook-Micol Muratori

Work in progress: The sculpture, made of timber, glassware and a piece of found wood, was  created using three joints: dowel joint, lap joint and screw. Final piece in the sculpture group exhibition:

The piece was created with this question in mind: ‘What if the subject/content of a painting was presented outside of the canvas?’ The shapes are in fact, outside what should be the ‘frame’ of the painting, making it "out of place". The three-dimensional abstract painting was made by using various materials, cut and arranged in different shapes, then assembled together. The colours are meant to highlight the different materials and at the same time blend them together as if they were part of the same piece. A 2D painting was also later created in response to the three dimensional collage, by taking some of its shapes and colours and transforming them into a two-dimensional original piece.

  Suspended, Plastic chair, rope, rocks, toilet rolls, mesh wire, nailbrushes, 2018 An assemblage was created in relation to the previous works in the theme of "Out of place", but deals with the theme of out of place and meaning of displacement in terms of an object deprived of its original function and the ambiguity deriving from it.    The chair is deprived of its original function since it is suspended in the air and it's impossible to sit on it. The different objects hanging from the chair show the contrast between the simplicity of natural elements and everyday objects .
