“We are only products” (“Siamo solo prodotti”) is a smaller scale reproduction of “Wrapping” (“Involucro”), a work that was selected at the London Biennale 2021, created with scanning and digital 3D printing. It represents the individual as a mirror of the society in which they live: the decay of culture, institutions and values has left the invididual resembling a mass-produced product with a bar code printed on the skin. This state prevents him from expressing his individuality and is represented by the clear marks in the joints, a reference to industrial manufaturing. Captivating colors are used to embellish the material in total decay.

Rather than exploiting modeling and manipulation to recreate the anatomy of the body, he obtains it with the use of technology as an opportunity to develop his own research.
