Filamento
Filamento is a sculptural piece made of a single piece of glass more than Two meter long.
When illuminated, its form and matter disappear, giving way to a filament of light as a result of the study of its geometry.
The propagation of particles called photons becomes a visible and linear form of energy. It serves as a study of how light travels through concave and convex glass.
Filamento has been exhibited at Spazio Rossana Orlandi during Fuorisalone since 2018.
It a piece very important for us. Everytime we live Filamento's lighting experience so many memories come to our minds.
