The sculptures are known as Decostruzione which passes through a process of random object identification (objet trouvé), deconstruction, and assemblage. Fabio picks found objects he finds to be aesthetically pleasing such as road / warning signs and random material such as garbage made from metal. Fabio then recycles these objects, cuts them down into pieces, and orchestrates as well as curates them into polished, finished works of art. By reconstructing the objects he gives them a new identity and purpose conveying a sense of revealed reality and breaking them down into planes of surface and texture.
