Simone Cametti's 'Bivacchi' Project at Shazar Gallery in Naples

exhibition · 2026-04-27

Simone Cametti (Rome, 1982) presents 'Primitivo' at Shazar Gallery in Naples, featuring his larger project 'Bivacchi'. The exhibition explores disorientation in nature and the human-nature relationship through performative actions in abandoned mountain shelters. Cametti, co-curator with Valentina Muzi, reactivates the Rifugio Delle Serre at 1,500 meters between Abruzzo and Lazio. Works include video, photography, installations, and sculptures, with two neon lights replicating the white light used to navigate the path. Artists Francesca Cornacchini and Chiara Fantaccione also participated. Cametti, winner of the Premio Terna 2013 for 'Europe Moon', aims to transform the territory through light, inviting viewers to discover a new identity of nature.
