Luca Vanello’s art grew on the intimate silence and the tactile memory of gardens. It is an emblem of regeneration and metamorphosis. The installation crystallizes an instant that lives out of time, using plants from Venetian and Belgian gardens to weave a fabric of contact and care. Contact with the plant world comes in form of touch, a refuge to explore the interweaving of the organic, human, and technological dimensions. Vanello assembles plant matter into sculptures after taking its vital element, chlorophyll, out of it. Natural decay is thus arrested, freeing matter from the passing of time and making it enter a liminal dimension.
