Rebecca Horn's Mechanical Sculptures at Studio Trisorio, Naples
Rebecca Horn presents her mechanical sculptures at Studio Trisorio in Naples for the exhibition 'Passing the Moon of Evidence.' The works incorporate rotating mirrors, volcanic stone, bronze, butterflies with moving wings, dry branches, erotic-shaped pumpkins, and gold leaf. Enclosed in vitrines or free-standing, the assemblages create a timeless, dreamlike space where real and imaginary coexist. Horn animates objects with kinetic sensitivity, exploring natural phenomena and the relationship between masculine and feminine principles. The exhibition transforms the gallery into an atemporal dimension, referencing Michel Foucault's concept of space inhabited by ghosts.
