what does it mean to be human in a time of disintegration?

​

Organic Tissue is a radical curatorial act that does not seek to answer this question, but to inhabit it. Moving through the space feels like entering a living entity—its surfaces porous, its gestures trembling, its internal language whispered through threads, skin, debris, and echo. Each work pulses with its own emotional charge, yet all are connected through a shared logic of care, resilience, and interdependence.

​

Here, art is not an object or a concept it is a body made of other bodies, a temporary communion.

​

Curated under the looming threat of war and social fracture, Organic Tissue insists on the collective as a mode of survival. It weaves together voices that are personal and political, tactile and sonic, ephemeral and resilient. In this space, identity is not fixed but fluid—offered not as statement, but as inquiry. The exhibition invites us to hold contradiction, to attend to rupture, and to imagine healing not as resolution, but as relation.

Organic Tissue / Central Installation

Danielle Mano-Bella

At the core of the exhibition is the installation Organic Tissue / Central Installation by Danielle Mano-Bella, which gives the project its name and conceptual anchor. Developed out of a solo exhibition titled The Alchemist, and shaped through collaboration with the biotech startup SilkIt and other research-based artists, this abstract installation is built from photographic fragments of figures from different communities across the world. Suspended in the center of the space, it acts as both gravitational and connective force an open, multilayered body made of emotional and cultural textures. The piece reflects Danielle’s ongoing exploration of human relationships, memory, and vulnerability through deconstruction and reassembly. It affirms that, beyond difference, we share a deep organic fabric: a tapestry of visions, desires, beliefs, needs, and drives.

This installation proposes not only an aesthetic experience, but the possibility of building a new kind of shared space one based on humanity, understanding, and interconnection.

Danielle Meno-Bella is a research-based Artist and Entrepreneur who, through the medium of
art and the integration of research-based outputs, creates images and installations from the
world of photography and the technique of deconstruction and reassembly, to explore human
relationships and cultural contexts, with the aim of forging connections and fostering
collaboration and understanding.
Following the exhibition "The Alchemist" that presented the development of “ Memory Shape
project” that Danielle developed by collaboration with the Israeli biotech startup “SilkIt” , creates
a new concept: a group of research-based artists who come together under the umbrella of the
threat cast by war, with the aim of strengthening and deepening the idea that "organic tapestry"
is, in fact, a single human unit, composed through countless, conscious, delicate, and emotional
textures to the point of transparency, and whose essence is woven of textures with visions,
desires, beliefs, needs, drives, and feelings.
This exhibition presents the possibility of building a reality based on humanity, understanding,
and the creation of a shared space for all.
