ARTIST, COMMUNITY AND MEMORY
Dialogs about the wound
curated by Bianca Tosatti

It takes a lot of courage to turn pain into beauty and then to share it.
The artists are those “out of place”, they choose to get lost in the wounds of urban areas.
The artists are prophets, they’re those who shout, like an incomprehensible road sign: look out, falling rocks.
Memory makes history open and reviewable, first it goes ahead and then steps back, it builds new worlds, aware of the distaster and ready to survive.
Bianca Tosatti
