Galleria Continua presents in its San Gimignano space the exhibition Present Tense by Arcangelo Sassolino. The exhibition brings together a series of new, never-before-seen works, exploring the theme of matter in constant transformation in an attempt to capture a present that is constantly slipping away. Industrial oil, a central element of the works displayed, becomes liquid sculpture and a metaphor for the constant instability of time and space: a dense, opaque fluid that moves, expands, and contracts, engaging in a continuous dialogue between control and unpredictability.
Present Tense thus presents itself as a space of suspension and observation of change, where matter becomes a vehicle for a broader reflection on the ephemeral nature of existence and the eternal challenge of making visible that which, by its very essence, cannot be fixed.
