On Friday 2nd October, as part of the project “Umbria, a land that moves you”, promoted by C.U.R.A., Alberonero presented Monte Immagine, his latest temporary environmental installation, in collaboration with STUDIO STUDIO STUDIO, in Vallo di Nera.

Monte Immagine consists of five installations made with natural materials found in the surrounding woods, all concentrated within a single clearing.
Tree trunks and branches, the pillars of the works, resins and colored fabrics, dialogue openly with all the elements of the surrounding landscape, including the atmospheric agents that characterize it, the clouds first and foremost.

The environmental installation stems from Alberonero’s desire to explore and investigate the landscape of Vallo di Nera through the natural elements that make up its bond with man, placing the accent on places and symbols of the village that have now become invisible.

In my works, I try to make a practical experience of the site that leads me to be in balance without modifying it, but rather to alter it temporarily. An approach that, in the past, I shared with local workers. Here, not by chance, I met Giuseppe, a shepherd who helped me think that here I could have worked on the moods that derive from the extraordinary and solitary moments with the site
