Giovanni Lora’s Figure da lastra are like creatures liberated from iron.
The figures come out light, freeing themselves from the hard, heavy steel. They sustain each other with a mere touch, and maybe they dance together in the thrill of freedom. Their movement – lucent in the metal – fluctuates, outlining thousands of possible expansions and variations. Counterimages of shadows – the emptiness created through cutting, resonates with the silhouettes. A single beam of light is enough to allow the figures to reappear, like bright illusory fires.
