Unique Sound
Extrait de Parfum
Filippo experiences art as an intimate dialogue that can transform into scent. He has captured the echo of Caravaggio's three paintings – The Calling of St. Matthew, The Martyrdom of St. Matthew, and St. Matthew and the Angel. A sensory journey that intertwines light, flesh, and the divine, inviting the wearer to cross new thresholds of perception and thus create a UNICO SUONO (UNIQUE SOUND).
"I borrow bodies and objects and paint them to remind myself of the magic of balance that governs the entire universe.
In this magic, my soul resonates with the UNIQUE SOUND that leads me back to God."
– CARAVAGGIO
Cardinal Francesco Maria Bourbon Del Monte, Caravaggio's patron, presents him for the commission in view of the Holy Year 1600. The contract is signed on July 23, 1599, with the obligation to complete the works by the following summer.
UNICO SUONO, a marble-effect casket, contains three small pouches. It first tells a story through sight and touch.
Three fabrics that synesthetically refer to the fabrics depicted on each canvas: velvet, linen, wool with silk.
Three, like the cycle of paintings. Three scents as a synthesis of Caravaggio's poetry. The Light. The Painting of Man. The Divine.
LA LUMIÉRE, the ray of light as a moment of creation. Unexpected. It is cutting and purifying, it shines because it is dark. It smells of velvet, moving with its grace.
