Damss Art

DAMSS: Fibers develop into Art.
DAMSS is the name with which Daniela Arnoldi, environmental engineer, and Marco Sarzi-Sartori, architect, since 2000 sign the exclusive works of Art that they create as a pair, with an unmistakable style. DAMSS use mainly natural or manmade fabrics, yarns and fibres to create sculptures, pictures and installations, focusing on industrial waste fabrics and theyr manipulation. The underlying theme of the works is the intrinsic value of the reuse and development of the medium connected to the strong technical textiles, maximum creativity and freedom of expression. The creative action of DAMSS aims to use art to promote industrial textile recycling using new languages. Design is their strong point from reciprocal previous professional experiences and thanks to these, DAMSS can create large-sized works. Among their most significant exibitions : The installation at the spazio Cruciani EXPO 2015 Milan, K&S London and Dublin, Biblioteca nazionale Braidense Brera Milan, Normandy impressionist festival,site installation at XXI Triennal international design Milan,The installation THE SIGN for the anniversary of Miniartextil,The personal exibition at San Marino Republic,Personal exibition at Museo Messina Mila...
