Francesco Jodice’s project comes nearly 20 years after the work that Mimmo Jodice did (in 2008) in the same territory, offering a portrait of the landscapes of Oasi Zegna and the interiors of the wool mill (Lanificio Ermenegildo Zegna). The resulting narrative is a new rendering of the place’s essence and identity: two different aspects of the same territory, a place which, like them, exists in a never-ending natural evolution.
Commissioning art innervates the place like an eye-catching thread in a precious fabric, connecting generations, visions, transformations. It’s these bonds – between father and son, memory and project – that constitute the territory’s identity, in a potentially endless narration.
