carnovsky
Carnovsky is a Milan based designer duo composed by Silvia Quintanilla and Francesco Rugi. After having obtained a MA in the Domus Academy of Milan, they founded the studio Carnovsky. RGB-Le Metamorfosi, is the work actually exposed at the Direktorenhaus. About their work they say:
"In each image three layers live together, three worlds that could belong to a specific animal kingdom or to an anatomical part, but at the same time connect to a different psychological or emotional status which passes from the clear to the hidden, from the light to the darkness, from the awakeness to the dream to something that could be a sort of exploration of the surface’s deepness.”
