Thomas Hutton (London, 1983) creates sculptures that explore the tectonics and poetics of material space. In this interview, the artist t—one of the protagonists of the exhibition Post Scriptum. A museum forgotten by heart — reflects on the challenge of illuminating Simone Forti’s works, displayed in the same room, using only the light from his alabaster and peperino stone lamps. Hutton delves into the figurative dimension of his sculptures, inspired by the proportions of the human body, and explains how peperino, tied to his experience in the Viterbo countryside, and alabaster, sourced from Egypt, have shaped this series of works.
