Sound as spell. Terraforma EXO Palermo, in collaboration with Operativa Arte Contemporanea, welcomes Emiliano Maggi to Villa Tasca on October 17.
For the occasion, Maggi presents The Nymphs Orchestra: starting from a tree trunk found in the villa’s garden, he carves an instrument that becomes the starting point for both installation and live performance. Sound as a tool of identification, enchantment and trance, summoning the hidden voice inside the wood and the soul of the tree: part installation, part invocation.
Working across sculpture, painting, dance and music, the Rome-based artist builds imagined worlds where identity, male or female, animal or human, is never fixed, drawing on references where mythology, Shakespearean theatre, 1970s horror and contemporary drag collide.
Terraforma EXO Palermo is co-curated as part of the TIMES cooperation project.
October 17, Villa Tasca. Tickets on DICE.
