MERGE

ABOUT DUCCIO MARIA GAMBI

Trained between radical design and Milan’s architecture, grown up through multiple and heterogeneous experiences and professional exchanges in Rotterdam and Paris, Duccio approaches design from a variety of directions. In his projects for galleries, fashion brands and private commissions of bespoke furniture, he maintains a research- storytelling approach where every work stands as a momentary reflection in endless research on structures, materials, processes, which he carries on in his atelier in Florence.

The Merge exhibition showcases works developed by Duccio Maria Gambi, presenting the groundbreaking “Tempore” rugs designed for cc-tapis along with the iconic “Zuperfici” granite sculptures and the new “Incal” Calacatta marble creations. A visual journey through time which retraces the Tuscan artist’s multidisciplinary research into materiality.

MERGE investigates the interaction between nature and art; the dynamic synergy of man-made objects confronted with the reappropriation of shape and form by nature.

MERGE regenerates, distorts and creates a dialogue between Gambi’s Tempore rug collection designed for cc-tapis and his art. A conversation where time, matter and craftsmanship merge to dissolve into one.

Analyzing the relationship between natural and artificial, Duccio Maria Gambi evokes the process of disintegration and re-appropriation that nature constantly operates on the space designed by man.

cc-tapis is an Italian company which produces contemporary handmade rugs which are created in Nepal by expert Tibetan artisans.

Zuperfici is a collection of furniture pieces and objects that investigates the materiality of an object through its surfaces.

The starting point is the plastic laminate, a very thin layer of artificial material that changes and hides the structure onto which it is applied.

INCAL, a new collection launched for the first time at Duplex, with sculptures which blur the lines of functionality and art, expanding Duccio Maria Gambi’s research into the nature of materials.
