Tutamondo is an artists’ collective founded in 2008 by Francesca Marconi and Alessia Bernardini. The collective organises research activities and artistic events across Milan, particularly in the Viale Monza/Viale Padova neighbourhood.

The primary approach is to create workshops that involve local residents; permanent and itinerant laboratories of photography, drawing, contemplation, maps and suggestions. The labs are aimed at creating a visual project that can serve as a poetic reading and a testimony that is open, vibrant and experiential. Elaborating a project implies stepping over a threshold and venturing into the land of meaning, of ethical and poetical intentions.
The aim is to capture the changes taking place in a neighbourhood in order to stimulate thoughts on life and on the art world, which in turn act as a tool for encouraging the coming together and transformation of dynamics between residents of a building, a neighbourhood, a city.
