At the heart of their work lies a narrative of community, hope, and multicultural integration.<\/p>\n<p>The team behind this collective project is internationally recognized: all the artists share roots in Palermo but bring with them prestigious collaborations that extend far beyond national borders.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Art is a powerful vehicle for conveying messages of solidarity, hospitality, and the appreciation of differences. All the works created explore these themes, each interpreted through the unique sensitivities of the artists, in a form that fits perfectly with a space like ours.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This project, curated by Igor Scalisi Palminteri, begins in a place like Moltivolti\u2014now a point of reference in a city like Palermo, known for its sensitivity to issues of integration and hospitality\u2014and weaves a narrative that strengthens the sense of community through the beauty of the artworks, which break free from the walls to become universal messages of solidarity.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1742990141232{padding-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column]<style type=\"text\/css\"

of faces, expressions, and souls that interact within a visual labyrinth. The artwork extends across walls, doors, and facades of the restaurant, reflecting the rich human landscape that converges at Moltivolti.

A harbor shielded from racism and discrimination. A tavern where difference and solidarity are shared among travelers of all kinds and nationalities\u2014whether they\u2019re journeying in search of a better life or simply to explore the world.

The botanical and vegetal theme is deeply embedded in the artist\u2019s research, which draws inspiration from a contemporary take on Sicilian Art Nouveau. She recently completed a significant project for Facebook\u2019s Italian headquarters.<br \/>\n\u201cIn the canvases I Can\u2019t Swim Without a Sky created for Moltivolti,\u201d the artist explains, \u201cI tell the stories of those who come from afar and arrive in places like Palermo, Lampedusa, Genoa, Venice, Barcelona, Marseille, New York, London\u2014cities that, throughout history, have served as gateways for the migratory flow of both humans and plants.<br \/>\nMy work explores the relationship between humans and plants as a fundamental element in the formation of landscapes\u2014particularly how migratory movements of both are interconnected. I Can\u2019t Swim Without a Sky focuses on the feeling of nomadism and the resulting sense of nostalgia from being both inside and outside national boundaries.<br \/>\nThis piece is an invitation to reflect on how borders can be transformed into free zones, where diversity finds connection points\u2014giving rise to the creation of a new, ecologically reshaped landscape. A landscape where boundaries are no longer dividing lines that fuel conflict among citizens, but rather spaces of dialogue and exchange between cultures.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1044&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; image_hovers=&#8221;false&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=&#8221;&#8220;CLEAN CLOUDS&#8220; Laura Pitingaro&#8221;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]Laura Pitingaro is an independent artist from Veneto, now based in Palermo. She studied Painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Verona, but her work also embraces contemporary practices like video art and performance, which she explored under the mentorship of Karel Appel, Anish Kapoor, and Gary Brackett.<br \/>\nAs part of this collective project, she took on a particularly challenging task: reimagining and redefining a controversial and overlooked space\u2014the restroom. With this intervention, her goal was to transport the visitor into an \u201cother\u201d kind of space, playing with themes of imagination and survival within the environment.<br \/>\n\u201cWhen I was asked to give a new identity to the toilet, I thought about what I could do to truly transform that space,\u201d the artist explains. \u201cI wanted to change it completely, and I started with color. Bringing blue into a bathroom means seeing something else in that space. I chose clouds as the subject\u2014an element that is light, irregular, and airy\u2014and we used pearlescent acrylic paint.\u201d<br \/>\nA crucial part of the project was the lighting. \u201cI added directional spotlights aimed directly at the painted subject, to create a sense of wonder. The light makes the clouds emerge from the blue background with an almost three-dimensional effect, thanks to the way it refracts off the acrylic surface. I like to think that even for just a moment, anyone who steps into that room can feel transported somewhere else\u2014into a different, unexpected place: the Clean Clouds, which gives the work its title[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1042&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; image_hovers=&#8221;false&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=&#8221;&#8220;LA MIA TERRA \u00c8 DOVE POGGIO I MIEI PIEDI&#8220; Giovanni Zinna&#8221;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]Rights are the map of the human being.
