In the heart of the picturesque Ticino region, a captivating collaboration has blossomed between a Brazilian artist and a locally-focused coffee roastery.
The story began when the artist Gabriel Moraes Aquino was invited to participate in an art exhibition organized by the Bally Foundation: «Arcadia».
Talk about your brand
The "Arcadia" exhibition takes as its starting point the shaping of the territory of the Swiss-Italian region of Ticino over the past century, exploring different axes aiming at an ideal of happiness that embraces and develops the relationship with nature.
This group show "Arcadia" questions how contemporary artists compose and bring forth new architectures and emotional ecosystems.
Gabriel Moraes Aquino’s work generally reflects on mobility, exoticism, and the creation of spaces for conviviality. Photography is a frequent component of his practice, particularly with the series Negative Palms started in 2021, through which he explores a form of tropicalism around the world. For the exhibition "Arcadia", Gabriel Moraes Aquino presents a photograph of a palm tree taken in the Ticino region, whose emblem present on all postcards is indeed the palm tree.
The palm tree, a striking symbol deeply rooted in Ticino's identity, represents the area's exotic allure, its sense of freedom, and the strong connection the community shares with their surrounding environment.
Yanik, the owner of Caffe Suiso, proudly roasting coffee in Malcantone, has a strong commitment to local distribution and fostering close relationships with its clients, recognized the synergy between the artist's vision and its own ethos of celebrating the Ticino identity.
Eager to amplify the narrative of the region's rich heritage, Yanik proposed a collaborative project that would integrate the artist's work and vision of the region.
The Brazilian blend echoes the origin of the artist, and offers a subtle but intense, sweet and enveloping flavor, with notes of cocoa and toasted nuts.
