Linee rette di luce nell'iperspazio curvilineo

Straight "Lines in Curvilinear Hyperspace" is a winner of the MAXXIduepercento competition, organised thanks to the so-called “2% law” that sets aside this percentage of the cost of new public buildings for the realisation of public art. The piece was conceived specifically for the MAXXI. It is composed of four red tubes suspended in the museum’s atrium that project beams of red light into the space. The use of the term “hyperspace” in the title alludes to three-dimensional space that acquires a fourth dimension through motion and time. The work tackles the relationship between visitor and museum environment, becoming, according to Maurizio Mochetti, a “barometer of space” as it searches for a non-conventional link to Zaha Hadid's architecture.
