Scattered Pieces is a site-specific installation by Miami-based artist Luna Palazzolo-Daboul, presenting her body of work as an archive and constellation.
For her debut solo in the Miami Design District, Palazzolo-Daboul engages Robert Morris’s critical 1968–69 Scatter Piece—a floor installation of dispersed industrial fragments—and reimagines its logic through her own production. Where Morris privileged chance and anti-form, Palazzolo-Daboul introduces structure, intimacy, and memory.
The work is composed of fragments drawn from the last six years of her practice—finished works, remnants, and new objects—arranged across the room’s floor. Each element bears the persistence of labor and the intimacy of devotion, transforming the act of scattering into a deliberate reconfiguration. By inserting her own material history into this lineage, Palazzolo-Daboul complicates a canon that has too often excluded women’s voices, proposing scattering as a constellation, and both an act of disruption and belonging.
