The Archaeology of Consciousness series explores the arch as a portal — a symbol of transition between spaces and states of being. Liberating the form from its historical connotations, De Cotiis reinterprets the classical architectural structure, disrupting its balance and traditional stability.

Rare natural stones, recycled fibreglass, and cast Murano glass lend the objects of this series a timeless character. Monumental, majestic, and yet vulnerable, they emerge as contemporary ruins — fragments of memory that open a path toward new metaphysical dimensions.
