Studio Nucleo inverts the fossilization process creating a crossover between past and present.
The Potash Alum is well known since AD77 (Pliny the Helder was quoted in Natural History on the 52nd chapter of his 35th book). Its natural shape becomes memory, fossilized by resin, which is used in various forms representing different timeframes of the making-of process. Like a stratigraphy, the artwork collects and conncects more times at once.
