"'Give them a smile, you know, something that can also be a deeper level of understanding,' Sara Ricciardi tells designboom, framing the installation as an immediate emotional trigger before it unfolds into something more layered."
"'It's an organic sculpture, air sculpture, with these super bright colors that give you these good vibrations,' Ricciardi tells us, describing the installation as a living system."
"Inflatable forms gently expand and contract across the loggiato, introducing a slow choreography that recalls breathing and heartbeat."
Sara Ricciardi's installation 'Serotonin - The Chemistry of Happiness' at the Pinacoteca di Brera offers an immersive experience that addresses emotional fatigue and overstimulation. The inflatable structure creates a responsive environment that embodies the biochemical process of pleasure. Developed with American Express, the installation is open to the public during Milan Design Week 2026. Ricciardi aims for visitors to experience immediate emotional responses, with the installation designed to evoke deeper understanding through sensory engagement and rhythmic interactions.
