Hope Crisis Series is the materialization of the human belief, in the form of a votive figure; made of wax and bearer of questions and deep meanings. They appear disturbing because they raise issues related to environmental pollution (smog, plastic in the oceans, garbage, water pollution, building abuse..these to name a few). By positioning them in former abandoned or ruined places of worship, the artist intends not only to raise awareness on these important themes, but also to restore a sort of cosmic balance: as for these places there is a possibility of redemption, also for man there is hope for a better future.

If one is looking for a magical place in Turin, surely 10131 will be part of it. This is the CAP as well as the title of the first installation of the Hope Crisis series, placed and made public in Turin. This city is seen as industrial, gray, so the work also takes on these features. Fusion between metal and gray wax to represent this city as been the capital of SMOG in the last 10 years.

 Like the colors on the walls of Villa Moglia, are even the urban writings and fragments surround 10123, she is collocaded laid in a former place of worship, for absorb the darkness to release the light.

This postal code carry on his shoulder an heavy questions..
The 13039 placed icona is in the middle of nowhere, but in the same time in the middle of first italian territories made with in an nuclear active central. Just the rice and the gold are surround that place. This was the first time wen the roots are come out pray the 13039 in loco because the outside bring all the positivity and the light into an abandoned place like “Madonna delle Vigne”.

This time the horizon merges with this installation, the blue of the sea becomes one with the sky. 17024, hides her true intent, under the color applied during the pose, she is half created in plastic. The fishing nets anchor it on this Ligurian promontory, as a warning of marine pollution. 17024 remains overlooking the sea, to be able to observe and preserve it.

From the sea tothe mountains, Hope Crisis don’t have borders. This time the research has led the artist, to a place where the rock and the territory merge with the woods, in an inhabited area, once belonging to bears and glaciers. This makes us reflect on the climate changes taking place on our planet.
