A Drifting Loop: Mayrit at Milan Design Week 2025
by Adriano Batista
Mayrit is set to participate in Milan Design Week 2025 with the collective exhibition “A Drifting Loop,” organized in collaboration with Cinema Parentesi, Ortica Studio, and Cecilia Casabona. Running from April 8 to 13, the event will showcase a series of initiatives that blend exhibition, cinema, and emerging design, highlighting research, interdisciplinarity, and new narratives in the design world. The exhibition brings together four creators who push the boundaries of contemporary design through experimentation and critical reflection. Tellurico, a designer known for exploring materials and storytelling in object design, combines craftsmanship and technology, with work displayed at venues like the Design Museum in London and the Triennale di Milano. Gaia D’arrigo, an artist and designer, challenges the relationship between form and function, focusing on sustainability and artisanal processes, with her work featured on international design platforms. Alejandro Ceron, a design researcher, examines materiality and perception, creating everything from furniture to experimental installations. Stefania Ruggiero, a designer, blurs the lines between art and design, exploring the connection between the body and objects through functional yet sculptural pieces.
The program includes several key events. The exhibition opens on April 8 at 6:30 p.m. at Ortica Studio, followed by a film screening at 7:00 p.m., connecting the works on display with an audiovisual narrative that bridges design and cinema. At 8:30 p.m., a talk and panel discussion will feature the creators, exploring the intersection of design, cinema, and new narratives. A Mayrit Party at 9:30 p.m. will celebrate contemporary design and announce the 2026 Mayrit Biennial. From April 10 to 12, a pop-up shop will showcase Evade House’s textile design project, Cartinalunga, which emphasizes craftsmanship and material innovation.
