Ivan Delogu

ITS Artwork Award powered by Swatch Art Peace Hotel

Award Motivation

We have been fascinated by Ivan’s ability to tell an emotional and deeply rooted story with intensity, passion and relevance to the present. His love for heritage and artisanship as well as his personal relationship with the environment he represents with his work are inspiring, contemporary and powerfully pure. In the artwork realized, he merges the hard, material, historic side of the tools with the soft, equally handmade, lighter side of crocheted wool: a duality that speaks highly of local culture.
