Amedeo Martegani's Wormhole Corridor at AF Bologna
At AF gallery in Bologna, Amedeo Martegani (born 1963 in Milan) has transformed the space into a narrow, claustrophobic corridor that erases the room's architectural features. The high wooden walls, resembling bulkheads, are screen-printed with delicate, intricate drawings that seem to emerge from the wood grain. A small gap at the end offers a glimpse beyond the barrier, suggesting a wormhole—a spacetime shortcut in physics—as a metaphor for the passage. The exhibition runs at AF Bologna, with the gallery located in the city's historic center.
