If All Time Is Eternally Present. Light design for @labiennale Organised by Pier Luigi Nervi Foundation. Sponsored by Bottega Veneta. Collateral Event of the Biennale Arte 2026. Campo Manin, Venice (9 May – 7 June 2026). “If All Time Is Eternally Present” is an exhibition presented by the Pier Luigi Nervi Foundation featuring works by @kandis_williams , @taishani , @meriembennani , and Orian Barki, curated by @clairementc and @martabarina Set at Palazzo Nervi Scattolin in Campo Manin, Venice, from 9 May to 7 June 2026, the project transforms the façade of the building into a nocturnal urban exhibition device through moving image, projection, and reflection. Conceived as an encounter between architecture, public space, and speculative visual languages, the exhibition explores contemporary social and cultural conditions while engaging with the experimental legacy of Pier Luigi Nervi. The project inaugurates “Building Dialogue,” a new programme by the Pier Luigi Nervi Foundation dedicated to reinterpreting Nervi’s work through contemporary artistic practices. Sponsored exclusively by @newbottega and presented as part of the Collateral Events of the 61st International Art Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia, the exhibition includes light design by @xaarchive____ , seating by @_swedish_girls_ production @schaum__official , and visual identity by @sebastianocampoccya .

THE FALL OF LUCIFER Installed in a Private Tattoo Atelier, in Milan Laser-cut raw steel and LED strip. The sculpture is cut from a single 4mm sheet of raw stainless steel. Its surface remains untreated — no polish, no coating — allowing the material to register light, oxidation, and the marks of fabrication. The figure emerges through subtraction: laser-cut contours define a body suspended between extension and collapse. What is removed becomes as important as what remains. @jakenowicz

Private Tattoo Atelier, 2025 Completed last year in Milan, this project is a soft interior renovation conceived to create a sense of ease and comfort for each visitor. A private tattoo atelier operating by appointment only, the space was designed as a calm, gallery-like environment and workspace for a single artist. @jakenowicz
