LORIS CECCHINI
Emotional Diagrams and Other Micrologies
Leila Heller Gallery announces “Emotional Diagrams and Other Micrologies”, Loris Cecchini’s first solo exhibition with the gallery, on view from January 15 – February21, 2015 at 568 West 25th Street.
Continuing his inquiry into the evaluation of space in relation to nature, technology, and art, “Emotional Diagrams and Other Micrologies” proposes an overview of the artist’s practice where materials are explored while reality gradually dissipate across the gallery’s space. Throughout his career, Cecchini has continuously introduced the concept of the organic element as a central component in his work, in part as an exploration of the idea of the object and its inherent materiality, but also as a minimalist practice. With the lens of a scientist, Cecchini closely examines his modules starting with basic 3D or watercolor studies,advancing to the particularity of natural elements.
The exhibition will present a number of Cecchini’s module-based installations, a calculated chain of stainless steel elements originating from his preliminary inquiries again using organism, as a leitmotif in his work to address the intricate evolution of art in relation to sciences.
In The Ineffable Gardener and Inherent Transience (2013), Cecchini has joined together petals of steel modules to form a semblance of a climbing plant organically deriving from an array of bewildering trails contrasting the deliberate intention of the propagation.
