Moi Aussi is Etnia Barcelona’s ultimate commitment to art. Bringing together artists from around the world, Moi Aussi reimagines a different kind of canvas – a pair of spectacles that seek to transcend cultural differences and ensure that the true purpose of art is not limited by any boundaries.
More than 50 artists participated in the Art Eyewear project, creatively interpreting anonymous glasses with absolute freedom of imagination. Through a journey of exploration, choice of colors, materials and finishes, each artist shaped his or her own work, transforming an everyday object into a work of art.
To further its commitment to art and artists, Etnia Barcelona has acquired the Church of the Convent of Misericordia in Venice, Italy, and transformed it into Moi Aussi’s new creative laboratory. Every year, a committee of prominent figures in the art world will select two artists per month to participate in a residency program at the church, creating artworks there.
