The main joints used in woodworking, studied and reproduced in the years in which the school was active, become the protagonists of the installation that proposes them on a larger scale, starting from the drawings in the archive. Two-dimensionality and repetition are transformed here into three-dimensional uniqueness.

Their angular shapes, usually hidden, are made less harsh by the material chosen, a soft material, not very suitable for bearing loads, which invites to a contact.

The work is fluid and changeable: the arrangement of the objects can change and each piece is thought as a performer who, from time to time, goes to interpret different situations, invented or real. The pieces mix, discovering new configurations, new shapes and colors.
