Mattia Listowski Staircase Sculpture Hand-cast concrete and plaster 2025 Edition 1 of 5 H16 L10 P12.5 cm Each work takes shape from an image that cannot be fully captured. Rather than seeking to represent it, Mattia Listowski constructs it. Through a process of selection and reduction, forms emerge as fragments—not incomplete parts, but structures endowed with their own internal coherence. This shift is essential: the fragment is not what remains, but what acts. It does not refer to a preexisting whole, but generates one. Through sculpture, drawing, painting, and photography, these forms circulate, transform, and reappear under different conditions. Materials such as concrete reinforce this tension, oscillating between permanence and instability, construction and erosion. The work thus unfolds as a system of correspondences, where each piece functions less as an object than as a point of activation—a place where perception reorganizes itself and where new relationships emerge.
