On the occasion of Milan 2017 Salone del Mobile, the Italian fashion brand transformed its space into one big playground: Marni Playland. Reflecting on the concept of play, public will be invited to forget predefined rules and structures and interact with the surrounding space and the intriguing elements it contains. The playground is a stretch of sand which is the perfect backdrop for a series of extraordinary objects and furniture sculptures that have cast practicality aside to embrace their playful side, leaving them open to interpretation. The playground will feature toys to be showcased and toys to play with, storage containers perfect for basketball, colourful cones to stack rings over and baskets with parts that are so out of proportion they highlight the irony of the creative approach. All the home furnishings, designed exclusively for the 2017 Salone del Mobile, are unique pieces produced entirely in Colombia by a group of women who have skilfully employed the traditional techniques adopted by local Colombian artisans, finding their independence and emancipation through their work. The soundtrack for the event consisted in the revisitation in a klezmer key (the traditional jewish music) of musical material concerning the semantic area of play, from classical ballet’s arias to Nino Rota’s soundtracks for Fellini. The music director Francesco Sacco worked at the rearrangement of the material, leading the art direction of the musical part of the project.

MARNI BALLHAUS
“El Mundo” is a carpet installation by Luz Maria Jaramillo: The work focuses on the idea behind the game, understood as a place of improvisation and of perceptive and sensory experimentation. Open to a dialogue and an exchange of ideas, the game feeds on the “creative and shared” moments” whose aim is to open up across international frontiers through meeting and exchange of different languages and cultures. El undo draws on “hopscotch” a multicultural and multifarious game that describes and colors alleyways, courtyards and squares around the world by drawing numbered geometric shapes on the ground that must be hooped or jumped over. As a thereshold to be traversed, a path to be crossed, the carpet installation becomes a metaphor for life itself. The installation is surrounded by pc vintage speaker bought in flea markets around the world, playing the sound of their place of origin, in a complex sound design texture thought and realized by Francesco Sacco.
Psiphae is a contemporary dance and arts performance composed by Francesco Sacco and choreographed by Diego Tortelli. The starting point is the myth of Pasiphae, Minosse’s wife and Minotaurs’ mother, the idea of labyrinth not just as an architectonical element, but also as spiritual condition. The three dancers’s movements guide us in a labyrinth of thoughts, suggestions and the ideas, under the spell of a hostile divinity, represented by the continuos reprise of the same musical theme.
