Erik Saglia's Ceiling I at Tile Project Space, Milan

exhibition · 2026-05-05

Erik Saglia (born 1989 in Turin) presents Ceiling I at Tile Project Space in Milan, an independent art venue entirely tiled with white glossy squares. The artist chose to leave the space empty and instead install an abstract mosaic on the ceiling, a site-specific intervention that combines layers of paint with geometric masking tape. The work is a manual process, tile by tile, creating a harmonic tonal construction that disassembles the space while maintaining fluidity. The exhibition runs until July 15, 2016, at Via Garian 64.
