On September 21th Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo will open the first solo show in Italy of Ghita Skali (Casablanca, 1992), curated by Lorenzo Balbi. The exhibition is the result of a six-years-long collaboration with ENSBA Lyon – École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux Artes.
Starting from the observation of a new subtropical landscape tipology, Ghita Skali’s research is focused on the aesthetic and social implications of artificial date palms, recently employed in the urban context. The plants are designed thanks to advanced technological and eingeneering studies and today they constitue the most modern camouflage system of telecommunications. At the same time, the palms become a paradigm of contemporary strategies aimed at integrating the natural and the built landscape.
