To illustrate his philosophy, he offered a revealing comparison: \u201cAn object is like a person, and its mount is like a tailor-made suit.\u201d Each piece requires a specific solution, carefully adapted to its unique characteristics.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The goal of this little-known discipline is seemingly contradictory: to create a barely visible and technically perfect structure. The less attention the mount attracts, the more freedom the artwork has to tell its own story.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the lecture, Cole shared some of his most remarkable projects, including the mounts designed to display delicate wooden masks:<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cTraditionally, masks were simply hung on museum walls. However, we noticed that many visitors were trying to take selfies pretending to wear them. So we designed a glass display case at face level, allowing each mask to be viewed from both the front and the back. This way, visitors could position themselves behind the mask and take pictures as if they were wearing it, without ever touching it. They left not only with a photograph of the artwork, but also with the experience of having interacted with it.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The lecture offered a glimpse into a profession that usually remains behind the scenes, highlighting how different disciplines contribute to preserving our cultural heritage. This event is part of GINA&#8217;s activities at CIS University, which continue to bring professionals to the university community whose experiences connect the humanities, art, and applied knowledge.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What holds a sculpture that is more than two thousand years old?
