Project overview

T14 is a university editorial project and magazine series composed of ten issues, each addressing a different aspect of failure. The project takes its name from the 14th Triennale di Milano, which was open for only one day before being shut down following student and activist protests. Both the historical event and the project share this defining condition: an exhibition lasting just one day, where temporariness becomes a conceptual choice. The magazines were exhibited at Frison, a local in Rome.

The concept

T14/01 Tracce explores humanity's failure toward itself and the planet, focusing on the instinct for control over the body and over nature. The project draws a parallel between these two relationships, both shaped by the denial of imperfection and by the pursuit of an unattainable ideal.

Design approach

Through photography, the project establishes a dialogue between the marks and insecurities of the human body and the wounds inflicted on the environment by unsustainable human actions. Images related to Anthropocene phenomena were recreated using experimental materials such as plaster, ink, tempera, and tissue paper, transforming environmental damage into tangible matter.

Editorial details

The publication adopts an A4 loose-leaf, unbound format, allowing each page to function both as editorial content and as an exhibition poster. Printed double-sided on glossy and matte paper, the magazine reinforces the contrast between surface and matter, body and environment.
