From 25 to 29 January in Verona, OniricaLab and the Sovrappensiero Design Studio — Lorenzo de Rosa and Ernesto Iadevaia — conducted the AnatoMY workshop. During 5 days, makers and designers from different backgrounds (architects, designers, art and fashion students) experimented, designed and produced new and expressive solutions.
The human body was transformed, dismembered, and elaborated to create a process that, with an intentionally non-academic approach, generates a displacement of the usual point of view and the formulation of collateral thoughts about arguments mostly forgotten. An etherogenous and original work about a theme which is as old as humanity.
"We deliberately chose a subject which unavoidably links all of us and that is so large that everyone can follow a different and personal path," say de Rosa and Iadevaia from Sovrappensiero "that nevertheless can be synthesized in a universal language".

AnatoMY, part of the OniricaLab project, is the second in a series or workshops which started with TASTEFULL, directed by Studio FormaFantasma. The next appointment will be the "Material Girl" workshop from March the 28th to April the 1st with the German Architectural firm Umschichten.
Every two months since November 2011, OniricaLab organizes workshops dedicated to professionals and students and directed by experts from the design and making world.
A space which is both physical and virtual where one can share, disseminate and develop critic awareness about creativity and making. After every workshop there is OpenLab, a public night dedicated to making and creativity where all the projects are presented and the visitors can attend many small workshops, learn and socialize.
OniricaLab is a project promoted by Fuoriscala which, in its third edition, started the collaboration with other associations from the Verona area: Interzona, OndeQuadre and Reverse.
