Verified profile


Although the intellect knows that the Moon is a celestial body thousands of kilometers large, from a distance this ethereal satellite seems tiny and fragile, so much so that we cannot imagine its real dimensions: sometimes, we seem to be able to capture it and put it comfortably in our pocket , as if it were a marble.

Often the same impression is raised by children, so small, delicate and defenseless, but bearers of energies, visions, dreams and grandiose futures, often not even remotely predictable: we look at them, we protect them, often unaware of their ability to read the present and to imagine the future.


Luna and Bambini share a changeability and an extraordinary greatness that often play hide and seek with our real perception of time and space.

A Child's Moon, like the one that appears between Gianni Rodari's semi-series verses and nursery rhymes, because only the little ones, who possess imagination, purity and the ability to imagine and hope for the impossible are the only ones who deserve such a comparison.

This exhibition intends to be the moon, but also a child, addressing a very young audience with imagination and wonder to reveal to them not only the enchantment and amazement with which contemporary art is capable of narrating reality and dreams, but also, through the artistic expedient, to highlight important current issues in a playful and light way.


Ecology, social justice, inclusion, racism and sustainability are just some of the topics that will be addressed as in a game, in an immediate and spontaneous way.

Mild and at first glance amusing, but full of educational and ethical content like in a nursery rhyme or a fairy tale, the works on display will accompany the little ones into a magical world of rainbow colors in which to talk about "grown-up things" always using the right language closest to them.
