Description
Elephant's trunk and ears make it unmistakable: Gaetano Pesce was fascinated by animals, especially the "non-violent and gentle" ones. In Edizioni del Pesce's narrative, there is also room for a luminous object with the shape of an elephant, made from colored, folded, and expertly assembled resin elements.
The objects that make up Edizioni del Pesce embody the concept of multidisciplinary design. A series that exploits the tension between the design concept and mass production. This very seriality is questioned by the artisanal processes experimented within Gaetano Pesce's workshop, where he and his collaborators establish a working method that Meritalia® then learns, preserves, and applies: the foundation of its project and product culture.
Edizioni del Pesce, the imperfect collection
With Edizioni del Pesce, Meritalia®'s great merit lies in supporting the creation of one-of-a-kind objects — unique pieces that express a constant desire to experiment. The materials chosen to create them, resin and extruded polyurethane, are manipulated through techniques that exploit their malleability and hardness.
