Italia en Pace is a work that honors Italy as a living symbol of peace, resilience, and shared humanity. It reflects a nation shaped by centuries of culture, creativity, and dialogue, where differences have coexisted through art, tradition, and collective memory. Italia en Pace invites reflection on the power of togetherness in a fractured world. It is both a tribute and a message, affirming that peace is built through connection, empathy, and the willingness to stand together, across borders, cultures, and time.
Why collect this work?
Hundreds of repeated duck forms convert Italy’s familiar outline into a visibly assembled structure, making national unity appear less like a fixed fact than a collective construction.
- The artist describes repetition as a metaphor for connection and shared humanity. Here, that intention is tested through many small, distinct units joined into one geographic sign.
- In the photograph, contrasting colour bands divide the peninsula, while detached island forms interrupt the blue field. Order within each region meets irregularity at the borders.
- The documented medium is solid and glow-in-the-dark resin ducks. Their gridded accumulation gives the map a pixel-like clarity, while luminescence could alter its visibility under suitable lighting.
- Dated 2025 and titled Italy in Pace, the work links peace to assembly rather than uniformity. It provides a concrete prompt for considering how difference persists within national belonging.
