FRONDE / Dare Luogo



FRONDE is a group that believes in the art process as a tool to create possibilities and imagine new actions for the space we live in.

 FRONDE is based in Venice and is trying to foster interaction in the public space of the city through artistic interventions, promoting the exchange between different populations (residents, passers-by, kids, students and the elderly) and stimulate social processes.

Out Of Place - Powerful Plants



Conceptual styling work for PLANTS OUT OF PLACE project, directed by Coloni & Studio Aikieu - London Design Festival 2015. 

They called us to action on the concept that a weed is a plant out of place, undesirable because out of human control.

Out Of Place - Making Of




We share with you some backstage pictures of our contribution for the project Plants Out of Place, directed by Studio Aikieu (UK) and Coloni (Sweden) and launched at the recent London Design Festival 2015.

The collective project seeks to engage with the wider communities to re-consider the value of wild plants and how we may utilise them to design for a better future.

Moreover we practice analog photography, with old sought machinery, because we like the final yield that is less cold and less perfect than the digital photos.
