An explosion of colourful shapes and lines has invaded Oste, thanks to the urban artwork created by Moneyless in the park in Via Palarciano.
The Milanese artist, born Teo Pirisi, worked on the floor of the basketball court in the park where, thanks to the collaboration of the project curator GianGuido Grassi and the stART – Open your eyes Association, he created a floor work that presents all the typical characteristics of his art.
The surface has been divided into coloured areas and along all the lines of the field Moneyless has created his classic circles in series, which have now become the symbol of his murals.
The artist had to deal with a considerable amount of work, and he said: “it is normal for me to do works of this size, but this is the first time I have done them on the ground. It was a way to test myself on something I had been storing for a long time“.
The Moneyless artwork is part of a larger project that involved the renovation of the entire park area, which included redoing the pathways, rainwater management and the entire play area.
In this redevelopment plan, art plays a central role, giving new life to a space which it is hoped will become a place for new generations to meet and exchange ideas.
This value was also emphasised by former basketball player Jack Galanda, present last Saturday at the official opening, who quoted a line from the film Field of Dreams, saying: “if you build it, they will come. It is important to give the boys the opportunity to play basketball outdoors and to be together. This court should be experienced, cared for and copied elsewhere“.
