Multidisciplinary architect and designer Gaetano Pesce conceives sculptures and installations for the two-part exhibition My Dear Mountains at the ground floor gallery of Aspen Art Museum in Colorado, USA. Pesce’s recent show exhibits a maelstrom of furniture, drawings, and sculptures that identify his experimental style with his materials as well as his pursuit of technological and social innovation.

For the first time, he also took on an outdoor intervention on the museum’s façade, dedicated to Aspen Art Museum. The monumental site-specific and temporary public art portrays the title of his exhibition as boulder-shaped hills rise from the ground and gather in their green and blue shades. A triangular slice of orange material is positioned between the mountains to conform to its imagery as the sun, and at night, it emits a soft, warm light that marks the building’s landmark.
