Description

Chrome Candle Holder is the first in a series of pieces that integrate the use of upcycled electroplating rods. These rods, regularly used for submerging metal items into chrome baths, pile up residue through the years which result in heavy conglomerates of copper, nickel and chrome. Byproducts of an industrial process but which remit to organic forms. This paradoxical entity whose finish stands as the “stereotype of the artificial”(Enzo Manzini), also directly references the natural, with coral like formations. The specificity of the material’s unique pattern formations reining over the objects final appearance. Chrome Candle Holder reveals itself as foreign, almost alien like. The piece seems to have been recovered from the bottom of the ocean on a lost planet. It is generative in the sense that it accidentally opens a narrative. An object that generates fissure from which fantasy spills into reality. Informing an imaginative play and creating a scenography from a parallel fiction.

PANORAMMMA’S POETICS OSCILLATE BETWEEN DISCIPLINES, WHILE FOCUSING ON A CRUCIAL POINT OF CONTEMPORARY SENSIBILITY: THE EXPANDING PATHOLOGY OF THE CONCRETE, THE ALIENATION OF EVERYDAY LIFE AND THE SPACE THAT ABSTRACTION OCCUPIES IN THE SOCIAL SPHERE. PANORAMMMA’S DESIGNS DELVE INTO THESE THEMES BY EXPLORING PAST VISIONS OF THE FUTURE AND CREATING THE MYTH OF MEMORY. BUILDING ON OUR PAST AND PERSONAL EXPERIENCES THROUGH NEW VISUAL NARRATIVES. PANORAMMMA DOES NOT SEEK TO CREATE OBJECTS THAT EXIST APART FROM EVERYDAY EXPERIENCE AS MUSEUM PIECES, BUT OBJECTS TO BE LIVED AND USED. THESE OBJECTS REQUIRE A CCOMMITMENT ON THE PART OF THE VIEWER SO THAT AS A USER THEY FACILITATE THE FULFILMENT OF THEIR OBJECTIVE TASKS. ACTIVATING THEM BY S I T TING ON THEM, EATING WITH THEM, DRINKING FROM THEM, TURNING THEM ON, TURNING THEM OFF, CARESSING THEM, SLEEPING WITH THEM, WAKING UP TO THEM. ALLOWING THESE OBJECTS TO INTIMATELY AFFECT OUR BEHAVIOURS AND TO BE AFFECTED BY THEM. PANORAMMMA PURSUES THE CREATION OF OBJECTS THAT GENERATE FISSURES FROM WFROM WHICH FANTASY SPILLS INTO OUR REALITY AND INFORMS AN IMAGINATIVE PLAY; A SCENOGRAPHY FROM PARALLEL FICTION. PSEUDO PROPS. PANORAMMMA CREATES ACTORS THROUGH WHOSE PRESENCE AND PERFORMATIVE ABILITY CAN CREATE OF OUR DOMESTIC SPACES UNUSUAL SCENARIOS. TESTIMONIES OF A REFUSAL TO LIVE ORDINARILY. MAIKA PALAZUELOS;(DESIGNER AND DIRECTOR) INITIATED PANORAMMMA DURING THE CONFINEMENT WITH THE INTENTION OF CREATING A PERMEABLE AND OPEN PLATFORM FOR DESIGN EXPLORATION.
