The exhibition brings together three projects developed through our collaboration with Terraformae, the research hub of the historic Italian terracotta factory Fornace S. Anselmo.

In 2024, we created Terrafina, a collection of soft-mud hand-molded breezeblocks. A year later, during our design residency, we developed Weave, a series of 3D-printed terracotta tiles using one of the latest technologies in the field. The third element uses discarded bricks from the factory's production, carpeting the pavement of the gallery and the sidewalk, blurring the boundaries between inside and outside.

Placed in dialogue through a large-scale installation, these three bodies of work explore lightness within terracotta. They challenge the material's conventional perception of weight and solidity, treating it instead as a soft membrane, a fabric—creating structures with a woven, almost knitted expression.

Supported by Statens Kunst Fond and Grosserer L. F. Foghts Fond.

Big thanks to Wasp for their technology, all the S. Anselmo team with Carlo, Alberto, especially  Sveva and everyone who worked and helped with the production in Copenhagen: Mohamed, Giulio, Hagar, Philip, Andrea, Kim, Tommaso, Josefine, Monica, Michal.
