Volubilis Side Table in Casted Bronze and Marmo Artificiale di Rima

About the Item

Ruins by Roberto Sironi is a series of works that re-signify architectural fragments belonging to different historical periods and great archaeological sites, modelling the forms according to new aesthetic representations. The project relates constructive elements of the classical era, such as bases of columns, capitals, sections of an amphitheatre, with rudiments of the industrial era, such as the double-T beams and the reticular structural elements. Roberto Sironi elaborates on the concept of ruins according to a new perspective. Conceived as contemporary ruins, imaginary simulacra and/or programmed artifices – the materials and techniques of execution do not correspond to the original. The work shows how different fragments of architectural remains can be overlaid and re-signified, resetting the temporal distances and suspending the notion time. The Volubilis side table refers to the archaeological ruins of the Roman era of Volubilis, Morocco. The archetypal shape of the classical capital is reconstructed with the Marmo di Rima simulation of “Centopietre”, a rare marble extracted only in some quarries of North Africa and the Arabian peninsula and now almost extinct. Casted bronze and Marmo di Rima.
