dc.description.abstractThe Italian sculptor Edoardo Tresoldi is often depicted by the press as the poet of landscape, as he constructs monumental sculptures to find and nurture the ‘genius loci’ of a place, its spirit, its essence. Tresoldi’s majestic sculptures engage with dialogues between space and time, human and environment, past and present. The sculptor’s signature medium is wire mesh, the transparency of which serves the purpose of representing the visual and palpable presence of a place that perhaps does not exist anymore, a ruin. By exploring Tresoldi’s work through the lenses of memory, atmospheres, and ruins, this thesis aims to answer the question: In what ways do Edoardo Tresoldi’s installations produce atmospheric affective spaces through their ephemerality?en_US
