Passaggio is a new tactile installation inspired from the collection “The Skin is an Extension of the Brain” permanently installed at Mediamatic.

Passaggio is part of a collection of tactile installations inside the Mediamatic building that alter standard architectural elements in order to stimulate the sense of touch and to reflect on the behavior of the visitors within the space.

The work explores the relation that connects textile structure with the physical and social space by analyzing the boundaries between space, tactile perception and textile surfaces. With this installation, Margherita is diving into a new personal research on how to blur the line between the traditional function of surfaces and more stimulating encounters with our daily surroundings.
