Napuleth Visions is an exhibition project that fits into the context of Napuleth with the aim of creating a platform for exchange between the cryptocurrency world and the contemporary art system. The project aims to become a recurring event, exploring the intersections between the digital economy and artistic practices to foster a critical dialogue on the transformations of value in the era of decentralization.

Napuleth Visions is an innovative initiative, born from the energy and vision of a group of highly qualified young creatives, with skills in both art and technology. The exhibition is not just an exhibition event, but a stable meeting point between art and innovation, destined to grow and transform year after year. The long-term goal is to develop tailor-made technological solutions for the art world, redefining the ways of enjoying and producing art in the digital era.

Abstract

The exhibition explores the concept of "concrescence", understood as the result of continuously interacting forces that shape matter, meaning and value. Inspired by the thought of Bruno Latour, the exhibition questions traditional dichotomies between physical and digital, subject and object, art and market.

Through the comparison with the phenomenon of cryptocurrencies, Concrescenze analyzes value as a fluid and evolving entity, shaped by network dynamics. The parallel between blockchain and digital art becomes a key point to understand how value, freed from physical supports, is built through constant interactions and reconfigurations.

The exhibition, which will take place at Villa Doria d'Angri in Posillipo as part of Napuleth Open Village 2025, aims to be a platform for experimentation between art and new digital economies. Through an immersive journey, it invites the public to reflect on the role of the network and hybridization in redefining value in the contemporary era.

Artists

Clarissa Falco

Clarissa Falco (Genoa, 1995) is a visual and performance artist whose practice explores themes related to the body, reflecting on its condition in constant dialogue with machinic elements. Her works expresses the idea of the body conceived as a machine. The distinction between subject and object becomes apparent: the subject is stripped of its appearance to become a motor and gear, part of a machine. In her performances, the machine-body binary is conveyed through automatic, repetitive gestures, trapped in a temporal loop that constantly repeats itself. Falco holds a Master’s degree in Visual Arts and Curatorial Studies from NABA (2020).

Recent exhibitions include: Crashing Ceramics, group exhibition curated by Feng Boyi, Longquan Wangou, China; 4003, solo show, Galleria Ipercubo, Milan (2024); Master Control Program, performance with K.

Lorenzo Lunghi

Lorenzo Lunghi (Crema, 1993) is a sculptor and performance artist. His sculpture-performance practice comes from DIY and lies between neo-Luddite imagery and sci-fi alienation, in a magical-rudimental perspective. He holds a BFA from the Accademia Carrara, Bergamo (2018), and a MFA from HEAD, Geneva (2021).

He was part of the DITTO collective (2016-2019), whose exhibitions we mention: Eclissi (MACAO, Milano, 2018); Spettri (Villa Farinacci, Roma, 2018); Blind Date (Current, Milano, 2018). Since 2019 starts curating a series of exhibitions and workshop in extra-urban sites: Erbacce (Brugherio, 2020); Miraggio (Fontanile Fontanone, 2019). He exhibited in various art spaces, including: La Rada (Locarno, 2023); Manifattura Tabacchi (Florence, 2022); Plattform22 (Kulturhaus Palazzo, 2022); Giulietta (Basel, 2021); ANCONTEMPORANEA (Ancona, 2021); Localedue (Bologna, 2021); Palazzo delle Esposizioni (Rome, 2020); Sonnenstube (Spazio Morel, 2019).

Adriano Tenore

Adriano Tenore (Napoli, 1991) is an Italian-French Multimedia Artist. Due to his academic background in Anthropology and Sociology, his exploration mainly focuses on human culture as the result of scattered processes of creation, often geografically and chronologically disorganic but somehow converging in a unique multifaceted stream of cultural production. This tendency to adopt a broader perspective allows to move beyond a strictly cultural point of view, intertwining it instead with the biological forces that drive the evolutionary journey of our species.

His artistic practice tends to express itself through immersive and interactive audio-visual spaces where, in addition to content, the meaning emerges through context and action. Central to his approach is a return to instinctive, primal signs that evoke fundamental human emotions and resonate on a deeply sensory level. Currently working as CG Lead and Art Director, his focus in the last years has been on Interactive Design and Ai-mediated immersive experiences, reasearching on the growing relationship between humans and artificial intelligence, redefining the concept of trans-humanism and feeding new inputs in the interdependence between nature and technology.

Recent exhibitions include: Water me (2025); Bestiario sintetico (La Santissima, Naples, 2025); Exodus (Fondazione Morra Greco, Naples, 2024; Casa delle Donne, Rome); ZTA, Naples; Ex Asilo Filangieri, Naples; Ex OPG, Naples; Kung Flu (LightBox.NY Studios, 2018); Onironautica (Ex Asilo Filangieri, Naples, 2016).
