ITS Artwork Award powered by Swatch Art Peace Hotel

We are very pleased to announce the winners of the ITS Artwork Award powered by the Swatch Art Peace Hotel:

Chelsea Jean Lamm in collaboration with Ashley Elisabeth Lamm
And
Ivan Delogu

Chelsea’s artwork brings together elements of nature with the ambitious goal of creating a surrealist, mesmerizing, intriguing and imaginative landscape – in the shape of a human. What a passionate adventure, to deep dive into her visual environment trying to identify every item while being blown away by the whole - and what a thrilling surprise to discover the origin of it all, wonderfully executed in a gothic calligraphy, bringing us to another dimension yet. A perfect balance with powerful energy.

Ivan convinced the jury with his 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.

Both artworks will be on display at ITS Arcademy, Museum of Art in Fashion until January 6th, 2025
