The exhibition features about twenty new and unseen works by Murano artist Marco Toso Borella, one of the leading contemporary interpreters of the gold-leaf sgraffito technique applied to glass. The artist reinterprets this technique through a modern lens, driven by an artistic research that bridges tradition, experimentation, and social reflection.

In an era dominated by digital hyper-communication, Babel explores the contemporary paradox of incommunicability. The works evoke a symbolic and metaphysical universe where 21st-century tensions converge: the alienation generated by social media, the impact of artificial intelligence, and the loss of identity and meaningful human connection. The exhibition offers an engaging journey that weaves together contemporary art, historical memory, and Venetian identity.
