The commercial center Nice-Etoile in Nice, France commissioned Matteo Messervy to create a monumental installation for it’s main lobby in 2006.

For this installation, Messervy chose glass as his medium. It is subtle, elegant and its transparency allows spaces to visually unite. Each of the intricately designed one of a kind flute shaped glass sculptures contain their own light which play a functional role within the ensemble.

Almost 150 enormous pieces have been individually designed and strung harmoniously creating the effect of a striking musical partition.
