Light shines over the city as the sun sets on New York. A kaleidoscope of colors streams through the windows of the skyscrapers illuminating the new design screen by Gaetano Pesce. The artist recreates the skyline of the city that never sleeps by pouring coloured resin into moulds in numerous phases to produce, layer by layer, the striking hues of the building facades. This complex, handcrafted process means that no two pieces are ever exactly alike.
The uniqueness of each piece is guaranteed by a plaque indicating the year of the project, its sequential production number, the Cassina logo and signature of the artist, Gaetano Pesce.
