The Letter C
June 12th, 2025 - July 26th, 2025

Daniel Licht & Romain Basile Petrot
Ninetto is excited to present “The Letter C”, a summer exhibtion featuring two solo Greece debuts: paintings by NY-based artist Daniel Licht are shown in dialogue with objects by Paris-based designer Romain Basile Petrot.

The letter A stands for “Aeonian”.
Echoing the silent language of the ancients, it is that fleeting instant escaped from time’s processions. It’s about capturing the pulse of existence—a whisper among Aeonian  voices. These resonances persist, defiant of time’s erosion, carrying fragments of eternity. It defies time.

The letter B stands for “Beyond”.
Tracing the invisible contours of the unknown, it reveals spaces between what is and what might be. Exploring the beyond reveals unseen dimensions. Here, the infinite folds into the finite—where absence becomes presence, where edges dissolve into horizons. It transcends space.

When the unseen becomes seen, where time and space converge, the letter C awaits: a mystery yet to be unveiled.

Romain Basile Petrot
(—b. 1995, Paris, France)

Romain Basile Petrot is a Paris-based architect working across spatial and object design. A graduate in Architecture with training at Studio KO, he now leads an independent practice rooted in material experimentation and narrative-driven design. Viewing objects as architecture shaped by invisible forces, he creates expressive, abstract forms—often working with metal to explore its structural and poetic potential.
