Marco Nereo Rotelli's gondola will land in Milan: new chapter in his clean sea project


From Venice to Milan: Marco Nereo Rotelli's gondola arrives in the Lombard capital for a new chapter in his project on clean seas and the importance of the environment.

After the performance and exhibition at the Naval Historical Museum of the Italian Navy in Venice, Marco Nereo Rotelli ’s gondola will cross, laden with waste, thanks to gondolier Vito Redolfi Tezzat, Venice to land in Milan, at Milan Design Week, June 6-13. A new chapter then of Clean Water, Please, with a hybrid event, made of works, sounds, lights and colors, visible in the real world but also in the Metaverse thanks to their transposition on NFT: Ever in Art®.

The gondola, which in the collective imagination represents romance, love and beauty, rises with this project to a place of new being. It sails with its message to Milan, where it will be exhibited in the 17th-century Cortile d’Onore of theState University of Milan during Design Week for Interni Design Re-Generation. Resurfaced objects painted by Marco Nereo Rotelli in Klein blue, the color of infinity, tower above the gondola, whose irreversible course is a clean sea.



The poetic gondola then flows from the real to the virtual to also project itself into the sea of the Metaverse. In the large screen that completes the work, it will be possible to “travel” to an imaginary Venice where objects resurfaced and painted blue by Rotelli become NFT.

The visual installation will be accompanied by the sound work After the Flood by Alessio Bertallot. It is a vision about a sea that has regained what man had systematically occupied. From the depths of an apparent undulatory serenity of electronic sound corrupt quotations of classical music resurface: Debussy, Poenitz, Satie, Pachelbel, Hasselman, played by harpist Donata Mattei. They are relics of a vanished civilization that Bertallot has transformed, slowed down, superimposed, made arrhythmic and underwater using the “Chopped & Screwed” technique and compositional inspirations from Minimalism.

Ever in Art® intends to reflect on the indirect effects of our actions and invite a better understanding of the importance of the environment with its cross-world art projects with social, economic or environmental impact. All art projects aim to use analog and digital art as a concrete means of ennobling and enhancing the virtuous actions promoted by individuals, corporations and associations with safeguard initiatives. The idea of metamorphosis, recycling, and the possibility that art has to change the fate of things thus also becomes the conceptual basis of Clean Water, please, a project dedicated to the sea and the responsibility of communicating beauty implemented with the potential of digital and Blockchain. Ever in Art® works and performances are transformed into unique and irreplaceable pieces of data to provide collectors and enthusiasts with new opportunities to bring real-world assets and preservation actions into the 3D digital universe.
