Digitally-Days

Digitally-Days (2015) by Met Devoti is a sculpture that merges tradition and contemporaneity, crafted in ordinary white marble with steel and light inserts. The work appears as a globe engraved with hand and foot imprints—universal symbols of human presence—which emerge and glow from within thanks to a refined play of artificial light. This luminous sphere, suspended on a solid base, seems to oscillate between the archaic dimension of stone and the vibrant energy of technology.

The title, Digitally-Days, evokes the digital era, where physical contact gives way to immaterial traces living within networks. The sculpted imprints recall ancestral memories, while the light transforms marble into a living, pulsating body, capable of engaging in dialogue with the viewer. It is a work that reflects on the passage from imprint on rock to imprint in digital circuits, balancing poetically between permanence and transformation.
