LLAÜT LIGHT

The Llaüt, traditional trawling boats from Balearic Islands compose, overturned, the installation Light Light, exhibited by Fabrizio Plessi at Tesa 94 at Venice Arsenale in 2015. The author gives life to llaüts that were abandoned by fishermen after EU’s intervention, which incentivized their disposal. Plessi elevates them to the condition of both content and container of a work that is not only a tribute to the Mediterranean Sea, but also an admonishment: this overturned boats are the houses of those who venture into our sea. The blue glare emanated bridges - as in a constant exchange - the ancient element of water and the shimmering fluidity of contemporary technology.
