-First Place- Photography category : « Dora »

« Played on a perceptive deceit that seems pleasant and harmless at a first look, « Dora » is actually a subtle instrument for processing and catharsis: in the construction of a scene through imagination, it shows and fixes the irremediable human fragility. »

– Special Mention of the Jury- Installation-Sculpture category : « Jërëjëf Mama ! »

“For the capability to realize with simple gestures of displacements in unexpected contexts, small theaters of life where traumas, desires and perspectives can be elaborated. Lena Piani puts together virgin synthetic materials and objects full of stories and memories in order to create scenographies for tiny objects captured in their thoughtful melancholy.”
