The scenography that we envision seamlessly conducts the narrative of Hubert Clerissi’s life within the space. To us, it is of big importance to sublimate the external influences on his work and how they’re intertwined with the evolution of his artistic style. We aim to produce a visual narrative that unfolds in a linear way throughout the space and connects the multiple techniques and subjects treated through his work.
We highlight how his exploration of urban spaces—often fragmented by bold, black lines—reflects not just the physical spaces he inhabited, but also his internal confrontation with order and chaos in his personal life. It acts as a map that guides the viewer through his work.
The elements made of wood are supposed to bring a certain warmth to the space. The goal is to produce a contrast between a biophilic material and the cool touch brought by the geometrical lines and the use of glass and acrylic.
