AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

“ON OFF” tells the passage between two states, fixing in material form the moment when something activates or stops. Giovanni Capelletti is an Italian sculptor who develops his research through an abstract language based on the dialogue between wood and metal. Trained between Bergamo and Ortisei, he has long explored woodworking, developing technical knowledge that will become the basis of his style: precise, essential, contemporary. His production focuses on geometric, rhythmic forms, often built by subtraction, where matter is cut, calibrated, and recomposed into structures that evoke balance, tension, and internal movement. His works, including “ON OFF,” combine craftsmanship and design, transforming simple elements into visual symbols of energy, threshold, and transition. Capelletti has participated in several competitions and symposia, earning recognition for construction quality and the coherence of his language. His sculpture is distinguished by a constant search for formal cleanliness and the symbolic strength of essential structures.
