APACHETA  Installation

  • X LORO PIANA INTERIORS BY CRISTIÁN MOHADED, MILANO DESIGN WEEK, 2023

On view in the Brera Design District, an ethereal art installation recreating Andean landscapes. The installations recreate the magnified versios of 'apachetas', small rock piles built over time by travellers in remote regions of the Andes Mountains in Argentina. Equally, trail markers and ritualistic offerings, the apachetas are an essential part of the landscape and an endless source of inspiration for the artist. The sculptural towers are covered in Loro Piana repurposed fabrics showcasing a commitment to sustainable practices and precise craftmanship.
