Bolon's Exodus Turns Woven Flooring Into a Fantastical Migration
Briefly

Milan Design Week transforms the city into a sensory spectacle where design meets imagination. This year, Bolon's collaboration with designers Luca Nichetto and JoAnn Tan leads to the whimsical installation 'Exodus,' housed in a historic textile factory. The project reflects meticulous detail and creativity, blending textures and forms to create unique anthropomorphic designs using climate-neutral materials. Both designers found common inspiration in their quirky interests, fostering a collaborative spirit fueled by freedom and playful conversation. The installation beautifully illustrates the intersection of art, storytelling, and material potential through imaginative abstraction.
Exodus celebrates the art of encounter, of change, of evolution; two visions - JoAnn's and mine - intertwining for the first time, thanks to Bolon who made it possible.
In a landscape of solo acts it was so much fun to create a duet; while we work in different fields, Luca and I found common ground in our mutual interest in oddities and monsters.
