Ronan Bouroullec – The Sound of My Left Hand, is the first solo show in Italy of the French artist and designer. The exhibition, curated by Sarah Cosulich, has been conceived for the spaces of Casa Mutina Milano, where it will be open to the public until 2022, March 18th.

In the exhibition Ronan Bouroullec’s drawings weave sinuous and obsessive lines while intertwining with the solidity of their ceramic frames. His ceramic bas reliefs, on the other hand, rub against metal or oil-stick backgrounds with their abstract shapes and strong colours becoming protagonists on spontaneous stages. Anthropomorphic or organic, Bouroullec’s work suggests both an introspective practice as well as a constant observation of reality and its reduction into visceral form.

In Bouroullec’s show everything comes together in an ideal and fluid collage where drawing and design, artwork and display, sign and material silently clang. Tridimensionality and bi-dimensionality fool the gaze in their overlapping of texture and form, in a way that overcomes the need for a definition of the gesture that produced it.

The sinuous lines of Ronan Bouroullec’s drawings dialogue with the architecture and the poetic of the collections designed with his brother Erwan for Mutina: the elements of Pico, Rombini, Punto, Pico Bois and Bloc have been used to create an exclusive ceramic display where to present the artworks. The space can be visited by appointment from Monday to Friday.
