Why visit

• The works turn the exhibition space into a research laboratory addressing beauty and environmental responsibility.
• A slow, attentive viewing is encouraged: wooden surfaces, marks and fragments actively narrate time and memory.
• Recommended for visitors interested in exhibitions that combine tactile language with ethical reflection.

Works and approach

The show features triptychs and panels that reference sacred, philosophical and natural motifs. Viparelli often employs reclaimed wood and mixed materials, integrating the support into the visual discourse.
