ORBITE

Exhibition by Daniela Tieni at Inuit Bookshop, Bologna 2025

Curation and Exhibition Design

An exploration between the tangible and the dreamlike, where bodies and spaces brush against one another, seeking and transforming. Daniela Tieni’s illustrations orbit within a universe of symbols, evocations, and mystery, delving into time and its invisible trajectories. Mixed media, inks, and watercolors give life to lunar landscapes and imaginary portraits, suspended between the mystical and the theatrical.

Alongside the original artworks, the artist presents a new series of Risograph prints, expanding the dialogue between matter and imagination. Orbits is a meditation on time, on relationships, and on the ways we move through the space of existence—drawn in, pushed away, always balancing between distance and closeness.

This exhibition project was created in collaboration with Inuit during the Bologna Children Book Fair .
