This exhibition stages a focused encounter between two Sicilian practices that treat material processes as carriers of political and personal histories. The layout uses the Cittadella dei Giovani spaces to highlight surface manipulations, gestures and processes that reveal tensions of memory, conflict and transformation.

Loredana Longo presents the project It’s not yet dark / Non è ancora notte fonda, where traditional objects are altered through cutting, burning and breaking to defuse rhetorical power and expose traces of collective wounds. The interventions stress the rupture between public and private spheres and reframe familiar artifacts as sites of critique.

Francesca Polizzi shows Beringia, a body of work centered on material transfer and transformation. Wool, wax, rosin and resin become sculptural elements imbued with the memory of their making. Metal exoskeletons and structural devices reconfigure these forms, negotiating tensions between permeability and containment, visibility and inaccessibility.

The exhibition is part of the broader Generazione Sicilia program and draws on the Elenk’art Collection, a private assembly that traces Sicilian art from the 19th century to contemporary practices. The selection emphasizes intergenerational dialogue and the role of local collecting in supporting contemporary research and artistic mapping.
