City Poetry

City Poetry originates from the artist's project La Città Fantastica, where sounds, lights, atmospheric elements, and hydrogeological ecosystems are transformed into aesthetic and sensory experiences.

Piero Fogliati dedicated his life to the exploration of perception, creating ingenious and poetic installations where art becomes movement, light, retina, and sensations—experiences that can only be truly understood when lived. He successfully combines beauty and perception, uniting man and machine in an ideal place: La Città Fantastica, a vast project of urban interventions where sounds, lights, atmospheric elements, and hydrogeological ecosystems are transformed into aesthetic and sensory experiences.

"I have always had a great passion for technique and science, but I have tried to invent a garment to place on the objects of science, on phenomena. A garment that would allow the phenomenon itself to be isolated while also allowing it to emerge. A reversal that reaches our minds. 'I am a scientist who betrays science.' In other words, I am an artist-inventor who calls his works inventions and his drawings fixations." — Piero Fogliati
