Adstrato
2022
Environmental installation to be enjoyed through passthrough app for virtual reality headset






Adstrato is an experiment in visual interference, to be experienced firsthand and in a private, intimate and enchanted way; Adstrato is like an alchemical garden secretly cared for by a sensitive buccaneer who collects succulents but interrupted as to what to do; Adstrato allows you to play starting from an apparently recognizable and familiar reference system transformed into a daydream.
[...] Adstrato indirectly suggests an intuition, that of trying to grasp what is not manifest in the space of attention and training oneself to extrapolate from a certain image of reality what it has in store, emphasizing the error, the case, the hidden and the imaginative potential underlying every place.
