Ernesto Neto: Mentre la vita ci respira – SoPolpoVit’EreticoLe

The installation combines an attention to the themes of ecology, rituals and spirituality, characteristic of Neto’s research, with visions and suggestions evoked by comparison with the medieval origins of the palace and its centuries-old history. Conceived a resting place, on which to lie down or sit and share the experience of taking a break, Neto’s work makes use of locally sourced materials, such as stones and straw, plants, spices, and medicinal herbs.
