Scacco Matto tire enspirasyon nan mouvman konsepsyon radikal ane 1960 yo epi envite odyans yo eksplore ak kominike avèk fòm ak limyè. Prezante twa eleman konekte mayetik, lanp pòtab la ka transfòme nan senk eskilti limyè diferan, pou enspire yon nouvo enterè nan wòl limyè a jwe nan transfòme gade, santi, ak atmosfè nan kay yo. Li ka itilize kòm yon vaz, eskilti oswa pou konsantre limyè sou yon zòn an patikilye. Senk konbinezon posib yo okoumansman de echèk, pakonsekan non Scacco Matto a, tradiksyon Italyen an nan echèk.
