In the series JE SUIS LA MATIÈRE, Vincenzo De Cotiis considers matter as a structure in a state of constant transformation. Forms extend beyond their own boundaries, preserving an inner tension and a directional impulse toward expansion.

The works unite art and functional objects within a single field, where surfaces, volumes, and pigments create a complex, multi-layered environment. The interplay of the visible and the concealed fosters a sense of presence that does not reveal itself immediately but demands attentive perception.

In this series, matter appears not as a finished object but as an open process — a living structure that continues to evolve within the viewer's experience.
