PRIMITIVE CONCEPT
PRIMITIVE ON THE SKIN
Piergiorgio Robino invited Clemens Mueller, a young and highly talented designer from Dortmund (Germany),
to contribute, with his own art, to the Primitive Collection, Studio Nucleo’s latest open-source project.
Mueller has developed four photographs where white is stratified as a casting resin on his skin.
The images interpret the process and energy of Primitive,
as if in a human body, the muscle and structure could be covered by a thin layer of resin, freezing the expression forever.
The action also refers to our inner child (from the Italian poet Giovanni Pascoli), free to get dirty and play with shapes.
Stratify the white on the skin
Shape the body with a waterfall of matter.
Dip your hands in it as a child thrusts his hands into the ground.
Back to the roots, when thought was free and images clearly formed.
The moon was pure magic, the wind a voice to listen to, and everything was mirrored in the self.
