1 ALESSANDRO LUPI WORKS: Densità Fluorescenti (Fluorescent Densities) Albero (Tree) 8-9 Ombre (Shadows) interactive installation 10 CV

2 Densità Fluorescenti (Fluorescent Densities) Alessando Lupi s research on light and space started in His works called Densità fluorescenti (Fluorescent Densities) are made of polyamide threads painted one by one with fluorescent and/or photoluminescent paint. He then projects a black light. Subjects are often three-dimensional bodies that dialogue with the space in a kinetic or static way, sometimes through sounds expressly composed for the work. Every piece creates its own world, concentrating on the idea of inversion, that is, on the possibility of offering to the spectator the opposite point of view from the expected or predicted one. In his works the dichotomy of opposite situations, like exterior-interior, freedom-prison or lifedeath are annulated by the almost contemporary perception of these two aspects without, nevertheless, favoring any perceptive or hierarchic prevalence. Densità Fluorescente Sogno (Dream), 2007

8 Albero (Tree), 2009 Albero was realized for the Freeshout Festival in Prato, Italy. I reconstructed a 6 m. dead tree inside a big space that generated a fake shadow of itself alive, with leaves. For this, I have studied the behavior of light and shadow, calculating the focal lengths based on the departing point of light. In this work space and light evoke a contradiction in terms of time: past and future, life and death. For the occasion I also made a final performance in which I cut the tree with a power saw.

10 Ombre, (Shadows), 2003 This interactive work was realized in a public space in Genoa, Italy. A screen of opaline reproduces the shadow of the people passing as well as imaginary pre recorded shadows. When someone passed between the panel and the projector a sensor changed the channel and the shadows shifted from virtual and imaginary to the real one of the person moving. A video of this work is available on: Alessandro Lupi, Shadows, 2003, Foyer del Teatro della Corte, Genoa, Italy
