An elegant, ultra-thin ceramic product, the utmost expression of design and innovation which, at the same time, is capable of reclaiming its primal identity, becoming pure matter as a vehicle for colour: this is what Lea Ceramiche will be showcasing during the upcoming Milano Design Week (18-23 April 2023) in an installation entitled "Tools and Space", curated by Ferruccio Laviani at the PAC - Pavilion of Contemporary Art.

The choice of location isn’t random. The PAC is a place where contemporary culture can be experienced through art, where one can examine the present day with curiosity and an open mind, deconstructing stereotypes and looking at reality with new eyes. The venue is in perfect harmony with what Lea Ceramiche represents, a brand that's at the forefront of relentless research and whose objective is to explore this material, allowing expressive possibilities and original perspectives to emerge through a catalogue of unique collections.

“There are objects from the not-so-distant 'analogue' era, which are still able to convey the manual skill involved in a certain design technique. ‘Tools and Space’ celebrates, in the surrealist manner of Savinio in 'Giochi Nella Foresta' [Games in the Forest], an era in which the tools of a recent past (circle templates, curved lines, or rulers) were required for design and architecture. This installation, and specifically Lea Ceramiche's Pigmenti collection, also becomes an expressive tool for generating new shapes and volumes that recall surrealist monuments in an ideal De Chirico Italian piazza, suspended between the Neoclassical architecture of Palazzo Reale and that of Ignazio Gardella's PAC," Ferruccio Laviani.
