Work commissioned by the Borio family, owners of the Best Western Plus Hotel Genova in Turin.

In Matteo Tampone's work, glass fusions ignite coloured graphisms impressed on an archaic material such as lava stone. It is the power of fire that indelibly traces the work. Matter communicates and expresses itself. It is man who elaborates and tames it with all his wisdom.

"The graphism I have created represents imprinted signs that abstractly relate to ideas that arise from a set of connections: movement, calmness and energy."

Matteo Tampone, author of the work

It is a conception, an orgy of sensations, external and internal stimuli constantly interchanging until they proliferate in a flash: what an idea!
