From simple objects of common use left to die and rust, Cornaggia exhumes the soul of every valve of every screw, of every bolt, by taking on the burden of \u201cMater Unica\u201d giving nobility and infusing new life back to the useful things that man has inexorably discarded because they are lost in value and use.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cornaggia\u2019s Art does not stop at today, it remains indelible in the present, in the future, in our minds. Infinite elaborations of objects that have lost their function return to assume a superior and majestic imaginative role, they take on dreamlike appearances, they float in the cosmic imagination, they mock and deceive even the Artist who observes and can\u2019t rest from hearing screeching of iron and cries and howls and yelps, clicking and hoarse thundering puffs of metal gears.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<\/p><p><em><b>\u2018Objects fascinate me; I talk to them, I stop to think about who used them, touched them, their history.<br>My works are unique, assembled only with screws and bolts, without the use of a welding machine.
