PRESS RELEASE PRESENTATION, Milan
INSTALLATION - « INSOMNIA » at Hotel Principe di Savoia, March 2017
Naomi chose to use a hotel suite as a medium, transforming it - in situ, by dressing the furniture & objects with white cotton fabric - her own vision of a ‘nuit blanche’. The room is bought back to a blank canvas …
Surrealistic techniques of psychic/compulsive writings & drawings from artists, such as Louise Bourgeois’s ‘Insomnia Drawings’ inspired Naomi as a relevant expression of the nocturnal tuberose flower – obsessive, fresh, green, animalistic & addictive.
A few hand made original & unique silicone plants by Tzuri Gueta from ‘Noces Végétales’ are displayed in the suite, as a link to some aspects of the perfume.
