LOTTOZERO OPEN
Since 2021
LZ OPEN is an exhibition format that periodically presents works and projects by local artists at the Lottozero Kunsthalle.
In 2021, we showcased Abysses (2018) by Virginia Zanetti, a work that merges textile art and performance while reflecting on themes of migration. Created through collaborative workshops with migrants and Palermo residents, the embroidered piece explores the abyss as a metaphor for the impenetrability of human destiny.
