The project UMMN - Il viaggiatore immobile (the motionless traveller), a new interaction of the decade-long LA MACCHINA project, questions the potential of creating visual imagery as a tool of personal discovery and in parallel the possibility of creating a vocabulary to visualise it. How can storytelling be a tool of discovery? How, through the mixture of painting, sound, images and performance, can this practice become a powerful tool for research? The LA MACCHINA project has always been a stimulus to bring together different points of view by placing them in a free dialogue with 2501's research. With CROSS, the aim of the project is to actively involve a group of people with different expertise in an ongoing reflection on the creation of visual imagery as a learning practice and a tool for liberation.
Jacopo Ceccarelli aka 2501, is a multidisciplinary artist who works across a wide range of media, including painting, installation, murals, sculpture, photography, and film. His work is deeply influenced by his fascination with maps, urban and architectural spaces, and their social contradictions within post-capitalist society. For years, he has been exploring the passage of time, cycles, recurrences, and their various manifestations. His murals can be found across the globe, and over the past two decades, he has exhibited in galleries and museums throughout Europe, the United States, and South America. Ceccarelli has participated in numerous prestigious international exhibitions and festivals, including at the Luigi Pecci Centre for Contemporary Art, the Milan Triennale, MACRO in Rome, Basel Miami at Product/81 Creative Lab, as well as public art festivals like O.BRA, Living Walls, ALTrove, Artmossphere Biennale, Walk&Talk, Wabash Arts Corridor, Outdoor, Mural, and the Painted Desert Project.
Chiara Frantini holds a degree in Communication Theory and Technology and has been working as a user experience designer since 2012. Since 2020, she has focused on painting and sculpture, recently collaborating with the artist 2501 on audiovisual projects. With an interdisciplinary approach that blends psychology, design, and computer science, she seeks to transform complex systems into effective and immersive experiences by exploring their perceptual aspects.
