Mozzarella Light's 'Domovoi' Transforms Rome Apartment into Spirit Realm

The Roman artist duo Mozzarella Light—Giulia Ciappi (born 1997) and Marco Frassinelli (born 1992)—present 'Domovoi,' a site-specific exhibition at Casa Vuota in Rome, curated by Francesco Paolo Del Re and Sabino de Nichilo. Drawing on Slavic folklore about Domovoi, invisible household spirits that protect families, the duo transforms the apartment into an experiential journey. Light plays, kinetic sculptures, and reflective surfaces interact with domestic spaces, revealing the apartment's 'scars' through forms and colors moving to the house's own rhythm, not human codes. Visitors navigate cautiously, guided by invisible presences through narrow corners, blurring the line between belief and suggestion, dreams and fears.
