ABOUT
FASCINATED BY THE LIVING, LORENZO NANNI USES TEXTILE MATERIALS MADE OF THREADS, BEADS, PRECIOUS FABRICS AND FIBERS TO RENDER AN INTIMATE INTERPRETATION OF ORGANISMS, EXTENDING FROM THE HUMAN BODY TO THE FLORA AND FAUNA.
PLAYING WITH VISIBLE AND INVISIBLE REALITIES, HE REVEALS AN ORGANIC, ONEIRIC YET CONTEMPORARY WORLD THROUGH WORKS THAT LOOK SURPRISINGLY AND AMAZINGLY ALIVE.
