Evacuazione emerges from an urban emergency, transforming accumulation, neglect, and abandonment into an act of removal and regeneration. The action displaces waste from the streets into the symbolic economy of art, where discarded materials are reconfigured as provisional objects rather than definitive works. Value is shifted away from the artifact toward the gesture itself: the physical act of clearing space, restoring attention, and reactivating collective responsibility. In Evacuazione, art functions as a temporary tool, an operative process that privileges care over possession and demonstrates how minimal, shared actions can recalibrate the relationship between bodies, materials, and public space.
