Against the Unknowns / Sconfini (Beyond the Borders). Installation.

The new full-scale light installation The Unknowns don't show themselves for Sconfini (Beyond the Borders), part of the exhibition Against the Unknowns in Public Space of Contemporary Art Villa Toppo Florio, Buttrio, Udine (Italia) in March 2008.

The installation The Unknowns don't show themselves have been created explicitly for the exhibition.
Michele Drascek recreated an atmosphere, a blurry environment where one can catch a glimpse of the Unknowns, perceive their presence, imagine their action, even if they stay in the twilight. The use of neon blue, as a constituent element of the installation, creates a “cooling” effect of the exhibition area that drives the observer inside a mysterious aura, in a world made of shadows and landscapes, similar to the one depicted on the panels of the work of art itself.
