Padua street artist Andre Roulé has organized, together with the city's writers, an online auction to support the intensive care unit of Padua Hospital.

From April 8 to April 12, it is possible to participate in theonline auction organized by writer Andre Roulé, involving Padua’s best-known street artists, to support the city hospital’s intensive care unit, specifically to purchase PPE and respiratory devices. The initiative is part of the D-sign of light art project. The artists who have joined are, in addition to Andre Roulé, Alessio-B, Axe, Bolo, Boogie.EAD ft.

The works created are inspired by the current situation and are intended to promote a message of hope through light performances.

Forty unique works are up for auction: submission of works, raises, and free donations collected at www.d-signoflight.it are linked to the GoFundMe platform, which is accredited and certified for charitable fundraising. Donations will be paid directly into the bank account OSPEDALE-UNIVERSITY OF PADOVA IBAN IT69C0103012134000001100168.

The initiative is a non-profit, spontaneous and direct expression of the artists and their desire to convey values such as sharing and solidarity.

D-sign of light is a project conceived by Padua-based street artist Andre Roulé, who at the end of March began projecting phrases and animations directly from the window of his house onto the facade of the building across the street. The performances were then shared on social media and, given the success, Roulé thought, together with all his street artist friends in the city, to make the projections a regular event during the quarantine. The artist has collected a series of light drawings by different authors and is projecting them on a regular basis. The performances, which will be offered until the end of the quarantine, are filmed and photographed to be posted, and thus visible to all, on the Facebook page D-sign of light
