Activities
During the visit, the students will explore the exhibition of works by Benni Bosetto (b. 1987, Merate; lives and works in Milan), with its highly imaginative visual language and investigation of the concept of identity. Her art brings combines drawing, sculpture, installation and performance, weaving visual and cultural references from past and present. This creates complex narratives where times and places appear to overlap. Her inspirations range from literature and anthropology to popular culture, cinema, psychoanalysis and art history, giving tangible form to both personal and collective memories.
During the workshop activities with the art tutors, the students will take inspiration from Benni Bosetto’s works to create new stories using a range of expressive languages, giving tangible form to their ambitions and passions.
