Italian creatives map pre-election emotions in 'Il mio vo(l)to' project
Illustrator Chiara Dal Maso launched 'Il mio vo(l)to', an open call inviting Italian artists and creatives to submit images expressing their feelings ahead of the March 4 political elections. The project aims to create a polyphonic, emotional collage with documentary value, similar to the British 'ME & EU' project by Nathan and Sam T. Smith after the Brexit referendum. Submissions are collected on the website ilmiovolto.it and shared on social media, with many contributions reflecting a critical, Otto Dix-like tone. The initiative focuses on emotions rather than voting intentions or demographics. The resulting collection is intended to be published as a volume.
