96 ARTEFACTS STORY: Cristina Bigliatti MIIIO KING OF THE CITY
ARTEFACTS 97 Francesco Camillo Giorgino, stage name Millo, is an Italian Street Artist appreciated world-wide and recognizable by his unique style. His works show vibrant cities inhabited by characters that look like their author, but that as he says, “might just as well be a dog, a plant or a robot.” The metropolis is Millo’s kingdom, both inside and outside his works, since Francesco fills the grey walls of our suburbs with the buildings and streets that his world is teeming with. Like with Chinese boxes, his cities reveal themselves inside ours to tell us their stories, always different and always full of emotions and feelings, even when they are at odds with each other. Millo has recently finished a massive project, in which the Turin Contrada Foundation commissioned him to create his works on a good 13 facades and walls, literally changing the face to one of the most deprived areas of Turin. Let’s start at the beginning: tell us how you came to be involved in the world of art. I’ve always drawn, ever since I was a child. At first, it was my favourite hobby, then a passion, and then at a certain point in my life art took precedence over everything else and it became impossible to ignore it. You are an architect and it’s not by chance that buildings and cities appear in a lot of your work. In what way does architecture influence what you do? Yes, I studied architecture and undoubtedly this experience has influenced the course of my career. I’m convinced that architecture, genuine architecture is 100% made up of art and technology; let’s say that I’ve been freely inspired by the former. We know that you have also approached the world of design thanks to a site-specific performance, created with polyethylene containers during the 4 days of the Fuorisalone. Tell us how it went. Well, it happened by chance and it was a really interesting challenge. I’ve always had a soft spot for unusual media and moving from walls or canvases to polyethylene was really fun, especially because I had to rack my brains to make sure that the designs stayed in the right place…it’s a material that really doesn’t like to be drawn on. Also, during the Fuorisalone there’s a positive energy which made even the act of presenting the work a pleasing meeting with other likeminded people. You’ve just finished another marvellous project created in Turin, this time more precisely in the Barriera neighbourhood. How did that venture come about? B.ART, Arte in Barriera, was a project strongly supported by the city of Turin which issued an international tender for the redevelopment of 13 large blank walls in the Barriera di Milano neighbourhood, backed by funds from the European Community. I was judged the winner and so for the last few months I’ve been drawing suspended several metres above the ground! Is there a common thread that links all 13 walls? Yes, and it’s not just the theme that I wanted to give to the 13 walls but more in general the underlying theme of my research, that is, Habitat intended as a place where modern man lives, where he carries out his actions and in which he interacts with his contemporaries. There’s no real narrative that links the 13 works, rather they are more like 13 stages, 13 events that are clearly recognizable thanks to the use of the same language and the same subjects in all the walls. How does it feel to know that your art has kicked off the redevelopment of an area that certainly does not enjoy a good reputation, such as the Barriera? A great sense of accomplishment. Working in the Barriera was truly inspiring. Every day hundreds of people passed under my work cage: some to say hello, some to have a quick look, some just going to work. Often these people were not Italian, some had almond-shaped eyes, a Moroccan accent and offered Rumanian hospitality. Barrier is a large suburban district that has a little world within it. Realizing that my work has come to be seen by most of its inhabitants regardless of their country of origin, is a feeling I can’t put into words. Ph. Cristina Bigliatti LEFT: Ph.
