The work takes the most familiar object of the last two decades — the smartphone — and returns it stripped of its function: a large, imposing mirror cut into the iconic proportions of a phone screen, with the Face ID sensor present but inert. Nothing is unlocked, nothing is answered, nothing scrolls.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbove the reflective surface, an inscription turns the object into a statement about attention. Its tone is deliberately double: it acknowledges the frustration of not being able to reach what is tangible and reflective, and at the same time it asks the viewer, with unexpected gentleness, to look inward and concentrate on their own ambitions rather than on the surface of the virtual world. Standing in front of it, the viewer is invited to do the one thing the device it imitates is designed to prevent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe piece sits at the intersection of contemporary pop sculpture and a cultural critique that has become central to collecting in the 2020s: the mirror as portrait, the screen as a limit, the body as the only content that cannot be uploaded. As an exclusive edition created for a single platform, its availability is by definition limited, which places it naturally among the works that anchor a collection of contemporary Italian art with a clear conceptual signature.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Collecto Archive","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58052979163476,"sku":"130","price":5500.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0975\/9083\/7588\/files\/file-1713542940229-1.png?v=1793381617","url":"https:\/\/collectoarchive.com\/products\/alessandro-malossi-i-i","provider":"Collecto Archive","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
