“Il grande firmamento”

The stars can be seen from all over the world, 1995
“STARS CAN BE SEEN FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD”, 1995

A sky to contemplate

An entirely darkened environment, a black felt floor inclined by five degrees, and a ceiling painted in fluorescent tempera.
Darkness and ultraviolet light make the sky the only point of reference within the work.
Music by Karlheinz Stockhausen and Krzysztof Penderecki accompanies visitors through the darkness. Despite the loss of balance caused by the sloping floor, their only point of reference remains the firmament.
