The Llaüt, traditional trawling boats from Balearic Islands compose, overturned, the installation Light Light, exhibited by Fabrizio Plessi at Tesa 94 at Venice Arsenale in 2015. The author gives life to llaüts that were abandoned by fishermen after EU’s intervention, which incentivized their disposal. Plessi elevates them to the condition of both content and container of a work that is not only a tribute to the Mediterranean Sea, but also an admonishment: this overturned boats are the houses of those who venture into our sea. The blue glare emanated bridges - as in a constant exchange - the ancient element of water and the shimmering fluidity of contemporary technology.For do ut do the artist donates one of the drawings of this project.

Fabrizio Plessi: Sculpting Liquid Landscapes

Fabrizio Plessi (born Reggio Emilia, Italy, 1940) stands as a singular figure in contemporary art, recognized for his pioneering exploration of liquid media and immersive installations that fuse sculpture, architecture, and environmental science. His work transcends traditional artistic boundaries, delving into themes of water, fire, and the relationship between humanity and nature—concepts he consistently interrogates through meticulously crafted artworks designed to provoke contemplation and inspire action. Plessi’s artistic journey began in the fertile intellectual landscape of Bologna University where he studied architecture alongside influential thinkers like Luciano Vegetti and Enzo Morbidelli. This formative period instilled within him a profound appreciation for geometric precision combined with an awareness of ecological concerns—influences that would become central to his creative vision. He quickly distanced himself from conventional architectural practices, prioritizing conceptual projects that prioritized experimentation and questioning established paradigms. His breakthrough came in the late 1960s with “Monumenta,” a monumental sculpture constructed entirely from recycled plastic bottles submerged in Lake Garda. This ambitious undertaking wasn’t merely an aesthetic statement; it served as a powerful visual metaphor for environmental degradation, prompting viewers to confront the consequences of consumerism and wastefulness. The project garnered international acclaim and solidified Plessi's reputation as an artist committed to addressing pressing social issues through artistic intervention. Throughout his prolific career, Plessi has consistently pursued innovative approaches to material manipulation and spatial perception. He utilizes techniques borrowed from various disciplines—including hydraulics, thermodynamics, and nanotechnology—to generate artworks that actively engage with their surroundings. His installations often incorporate sophisticated sensors and computer programming, transforming them into dynamic ecosystems capable of responding to environmental conditions. Notable projects include “LLAÜT LIGHT,” a sculptural intervention in Venice’s Arsenale during the Biennale, where he created a shimmering surface composed of thousands of mirrored tiles reflecting sunlight—a deliberate provocation against the pervasive glare of urban environments. Collaborations with brands like BMW and Dior further exemplify his willingness to engage in dialogue across artistic and commercial spheres. Plessi's work has been exhibited globally, cementing his position as one of Italy’s most distinctive voices in contemporary art. His enduring legacy lies not only in his groundbreaking sculptural creations but also in his unwavering dedication to fostering critical engagement with pressing ecological concerns—a commitment that continues to inspire artists and thinkers alike. He remains active today, pursuing research projects focused on biomimicry and exploring the potential of nanotechnology to reshape our understanding of materiality and perception.
