Four Neapolitan talents counter stereotypes through art, food, music, architecture, and dance
Unending's Artribune has initiated a project aimed at challenging misconceptions about Naples by showcasing four local talents. Chef Marco Ambrosino, hailing from Procida and educated in Europe and Spain, has opened Sustanza in Galleria Vittorio Emanuele III alongside his architect wife and Collettivo Mediterraneo, with support from Luca Iannuzzi. Carola Moccia, also known as LA NIÑA, records at Phonotype Records, blending Neapolitan lyrics with visuals by Kawasaki Ninjia. Architect Antonio Di Maro has been exploring neuroarchitecture since 2013 and created a sustainable 3D forest for the neonatal oncology unit at Pausilipon hospital. Dancer Mariano Carluccio, trained in Naples and Rotterdam, is set to star in a Parisian feature film alongside Selena Gomez. Additionally, the article highlights a sustainable clothing brand founded by Neapolitan women, Gabriele Galasso and Alessia Caliendo.
