On the occasion of Milan Design Week 2026, Chiodelli Arte presented the installation Transforming Hand: Human or Divine? within the prestigious group exhibition MoscaPartners Variations, hosted in the historic Palazzo Litta. The work, an imposing “viaduct” surmounted by a giant hand, offered a powerful interpretation of transformation and creative expression, turning the space into an immersive environment of interaction and participation.

The gesture of the hand — a symbol of the creative force that shapes matter — invited visitors to leave thoughts, reflections and messages directly on the artwork. Thousands of people contributed, transforming the installation, created in collaboration with artist Alexander Brizhevaty, into a collective and evolving experience of living design. The extraordinary response highlighted Chiodelli Arte’s distinctive approach to Crafting Bespoke Luxury Interiors, where art, creativity and master craftsmanship converge to create deeply personal environments and meaningful artistic experiences.

Lara Plichero, Sales Director, stated:
“It was extraordinary to witness the visitors’ enthusiasm and imagination. At a certain point, there was no space left, yet everyone still wanted to leave their message—a sign of participation and a desire to contribute.”

Marco Chiodelli Bussandri, President of Chiodelli Arte, added:
“Transforming Hand embodies what Chiodelli Arte does every day: bringing together vision, craftsmanship and attentive listening to create works and environments defined by elegance and creativity, capable of reflecting the individual sensibilities of our interlocutors—designers, architects and clients. The public’s response confirms that art and design, when shared, become a collective heritage and a truly transformative experience.”

The visitors’ writings will be catalogued and preserved, while a selection of the most meaningful contributions will be featured on the company’s Instagram feed and exhibited at Chiodelli Arte’s headquarters in the province of Treviso, celebrating the enduring synergy between art, design and participation.
