exhibition space design
pocaa is an architectural studio that works in the design of ephemeral spaces and especially in installations with contents of visual arts and new media. pocaa works with the artists to adapt the space to the needs of the work in coherence with the exhibition line marked by the curatorate. pocaa is minimal, subtle and precise, making use of a silent architecture that does not interfere with the exposed art pieces. pocaa accompanies the artist in the work of study and implementation of his work respecting and enhancing the piece and the dialogue he intends to establish with the observer.
