GREEN SQUARE 2020

"It is time to bring Nature to the table and take the subject seriously. The table is the tool we use to eat, study and work, but it is also the object on which we place the important things, those to have an eye on and not forget. Today, more than ever, nature demands and deserves attention. To celebrate it, we have created tables, tables and tables with lots of plants on them, as sincere warnings to remind us to remember. The tables set up in this way are arranged in the square of Bergamo Alta, one next to the other, one on top of the other, one detached from the other, just as we human beings of today's humanity want to be! "
