A dialogue with art
Collaborations with Paolo Treni, Gianluca Patti and Alan Borguet have opened a dialogue between artistic exploration, material and design.
Through their individual interpretations of Tuxedo hulls, each artist has explored new possibilities for expression in dialogue with the owner’s vision.
Throughout this journey, aluminium has played a central role. Its versatility has created opportunities for artistic experimentation, while its recyclability invites broader consideration of the life cycle of materials.
The meeting of the artists’ creative sensibilities, the shipyard’s expertise and the owner’s vision expresses the freedom to shape every Tuxedo as a unique project.
ARTIST
Paolo Treni
Paolo Treni (Lake Garda, 1981) is an artist whose work extensively explores spatial design. From Plexiglass sculptures exhibited by the sea in Portofino to the aluminium hull of a yacht conceived as a work of art to be experienced at sea, his aim is to “create simulacra in perpetual dialogue with light”.
His interpretation of Tuxedo seeks to reveal the cosmic imagery explored by the James Webb Space Telescope, highlighting dreamlike connections between the depths of the sea and the vastness of outer space. Gravitational waves ripple across the hull, at times radiating like cosmic rays and at others evoking the movement of the sea, as waves break and disperse into countless reflections on the water.
ARTIST
Gianluca Patti
Gianluca Patti (Monza, 1977) bases his artistic research on colour and material, exploring their influence on our lives and the vibrations they convey.
“For Tuxedo, I chose to interpret their heritage by imagining a new concept of a yacht that can come to life through art and design.”
ARTIST
Alan Borguet
Alan Borguet (Milan, 1988) is a versatile young artist who began with street art before moving through painting and sculpture. His work has evolved from an art of marks and gestures towards pieces made with recycled materials, including wood and marble, each conveying a concept through a single gesture.
He interprets the Tuxedo hull as a vast canvas, the surface of a sculpture on which to create. He develops the language of street art and brings it to the sea, where his “mark” becomes energy: an energy intrinsic to existence itself, emerging from the meeting of different materials, aluminium and the sea.
