Exhibition design for Ai Weiwei's Murano chandelier at the Roman National Museum of the Baths of Diocletian, Roma.
The exhibition is an emotional journey into the fragility of man.
From the moodboard of the project.
Poor materials and essential elements embellished with gold
The contemporary artist's work dialogues with the rooms of the ancient baths.
The theme of the exhibition is introduced by the Roman mosaic "Know Yourself", found in a tomb on the Appian Way which recalls the transience of life and its flow towards death.
A gold frame embellishes it.
