Forma Design, Spazio Giustiniani and its partners are the protagonists of the art exhibition curated by Prisma Studio. “LIVING ROOM – the perception of domestic space at the time of the pandemic” by Leo Lecci
Living Room is an exhibition conceived as a sort of contemporary wonder chamber, in which the concept of domestic space, physical and mental, plays an essential role, being recalled, evoked, restored in its possible atmospheres by the combination of the works of the nine artists: Cesare Bignotti, Eleonora Chiesa, Clorophilia, Isabelle Fordin, Loredana Galante, Monika Grycko, Fabio Moro, Matteo Pulvirenti, Dana Wyse.
The exhibition opened its doors at the Prisma Studio gallery on 11 December and will end on 30 January 2021.

The experience of last spring’s lockdown and the one, still ongoing, of interpersonal distancing, marked a clear boundary between the before and after the pandemic, creating conditions that led us to think differently about many aspects of our life, transforming our perception of the domestic space.
The home, previously understood by many as the intimate place par excellence, as the space in which it was possible to leave social clothes to simply be oneself, as the refuge in which to seek shelter from the frenzy and jealously guard portions of time to devote to care of the self, has been transformed, in the space of a few months, into the set of our social activities, be they those related to work or leisure.
The house of wonders, built in the Prisma Studio environments, intends to compensate its visitors for this temporary loss, welcoming them in a space populated with panoramas, objects, desires, images and fetishes, small traces of intimate or manifest worlds, fears, desires.
A world, therefore, capable of telling who we are and which, just like our homes, provides a path inside that starts from an “antechamber” (the space that borders on the outside), crosses a connecting space between the public and private, up to the innermost room, that of the intimate dimension, that of the Self.
The staging of the exhibition was curated by the architect. Caterina Patronage with furnishing objects provided by Spazio Giustiniani, Genoa.
