States of Matter

States of Matter is a side project of OPR Gallery that aims to transcend the now canonised white cube, a contemporary art space, with design, expanding its boundaries and welcoming within its programming the dialogue with different arts that are essential to the Milan panorama: fashion, design, architecture, and music.

States of Matter is a reminder of the forms that matter takes when coming into contact with the environment. It is a metaphor for the different contexts in which the creative spark comes into the world and takes shape: from the visual arts to cinema, architecture, and design. In all of these spheres, a creator applies a force to the object - or thought - that modifies its appearance and determines its function in the world.
