Erik Saglia's 'Spaced Out' at Thomas Brambilla Gallery, Bergamo
Erik Saglia's third solo show 'Spaced Out' at Thomas Brambilla Gallery in Bergamo runs until July 17, 2026. The exhibition features LED light works on aluminum panels that radiate beyond their physical edges, altering the surrounding walls and shifting with viewer movement. Saglia's practice, rooted in painting with epoxy resin, now incorporates LED as a constructive material. The grid motif from his earlier 'Manifesti Satellite' series expands into three dimensions. The title references a paradoxical state of expansion rather than loss. The show draws conceptual parallels to Georges Perec's 'Species of Spaces' and Raymond Queneau's 'Exercises in Style', emphasizing multiple, non-canonical viewpoints. Saglia was born in Turin in 1989.
