Presentation of the exhibition:

“Every work of art tells a story made up of emotions, memories and experiences that are part of the experience of each artist.”

The exhibition STORIES OF IDENTITY aims to observe, analyse and share the stories behind the works of art, with the aim of becoming a visual tale, a continuous narration through images in a constant dialogue with the visitor.

Artists are invited to share any kind of story and personal experience, starting from the most hidden places of their soul and touching on everyday life. All the selected works are stories of identity, capable of facing and dealing with the changes of the contemporary world, letting themselves be contaminated by it and preserving their uniqueness.
