The prize is awarded to Umberto Dattola for the MACNI object, Unidentified Kicking Artifact, artifact-weapon inspired by the rule of the ARKIZOIC BELLUM section which proposes a battle against seriality in favor of independent production.
The work is part of the EVNI project, which wants to investigate the feelings for the objects that accompany the life of each individual. From these feelings for things emerge objects with very long legs to rise in search of parallel ways of understanding, ways of expressing themselves that at first seem hallucinatory, but which then reveal themselves to be able to touch very deep parts of us.
The artisan expertise blends into the narration, which gives life to the shapes, to the design that dialogues with art. With an evocative aesthetic that leads to raising the head upwards.
Swart, especially on the occasion of the Exhibition, opens with MACNI their horizons "design that communicates with the art" not neglecting the importance of quality design and production.
