Tipstudio, Imma Matera and Tommaso Lucarini, has chosen to focus on metals byproduct aims to enhancing them by preserving its conformation, its aesthetic and its sensorial aspects without altering its state or nature. In the foundry field slag identify a solidified foamy mass thrown of that floats on the surface of molten metal often composed mainly by silicates of aluminium and calcium, rock components and metal oxides derived from the melting process. With the support of Fonderia Artistica Versiliese, an art foundry specialised in sculptures, they explored the potential of the scoria in a link between the traditional approach to foundry culture and the spontaneity of metals. Diferent experimental production processes are adopted to look for structures and make slags more resistant. Starting from cataloguing them by typology and morphology the slags are then trimmed, milled in diferent grain sizes and sticked together with wax. A further fire will follow by running through the lost wax casting process to create new and unique objects: functional and material sculptures each containing its inverse, its exact contrary. The result is a casted matter self-supporting surface where slags are stuck in the bronze that acts as a binder and structural element enchasing the spontaneity and the material dialogue. The casted objects in limited edition have linear even brutalist shapes where waste and imperfection become part of the collection. Tables, lamps, vases and mirrors find balance in the combination with elements in steel, crystal and marble to enhance the material hybridization that is the basis of the entire project. The works reveal themselves to the physical interaction: formal rigidity flows into the curiosity of the person who touches, follows and reads the harmonic movement of the surfaces by rediscovering the story behind the product. “We have always been attracted by that foamy mass that emerges from the molten metal like landmass whose nature fascinates and intrigues at the same time”.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
