Puff, 2023, memory foam and polystyrene, cm 60 x 60 x 55
Guglielmo Maggini (Rome, 1992) lives and works in Rome.
The artist's work moves between sculpture and installation. His forms ironically mix different plastic materials in an organic proliferation of elements and gestures.
Once he graduated in Architecture at the University of Roma Tre, he moved to London, where he obtained a master's degree in Visual Arts at UAL - Camberwell College of Arts. Later he moved to New York, starting a professional collaboration with the artist/designer Gaetano Pesce.
In an imaginary and personal place where space is understood as a plastic volume, the artist aims to investigate the psychological perception of time in a constantly liquid cross reference between classical heritage, the natural world and references to pop culture.
