SARTERI

We spent New Year’s Eve in Tokyo in early 2014, chasing mining hardware while Mt. Gox was quietly failing. The meetings were tense, the deal collapsed, and the party happened anyway. One month later, everything broke.

In May 2013, we moved between Shanghai and Hong Kong chasing work, art, and friendships. Only later did we learn that, across the street from where we slept, Edward Snowden was hiding in plain sight, while the city carried on as if nothing was happening.

March 2013. Art Dubai inside Madinat Jumeirah, VIP access everywhere, artists, press, and power intersecting. Between new metro stations, rising skyscrapers, and parallel talks in Abu Dhabi, it felt like a city reassembling itself in real time.

A brief moment inside Colette, Paris, 2012. Between racks of black silhouettes and limited pieces, conversations flowed faster than the crowd. Art, fashion, music, all compressed into a single frame. The kind of place where a meeting is never accidental, and a photograph quietly becomes…

In the spring of 2012, Tokyo unfolded without explanation. Meetings inside glass laboratories, fashion lines in the streets, curry eaten far from tourists, and cherry blossoms falling on quiet paths. Sakura does not ask for attention. It takes it.

Urban Aesthetic Realism in balance between Expressionist Informal Painting and Calligraphic Sign – Lodovico Minelli Sarteri, 2011 Rae Martini’s “Ghetto landscapes” pictorial series moves towards the search for an aesthetic realism linked to places, lived or passing, scattered in the great contemporary metropolises. Visual microcosms,…

The naming service task involved the Client’s request for a concise and impactful name encapsulating the essence of “Swissness balance” and a forward-thinking approach for an IT venture targeting the German-speaking DACH market. Our proposed solution, “NEUTRY,” seamlessly blends the neutrality associated with the Helvetic…

Cold ocean air, eucalyptus, asphalt still wet from fog. San Francisco at the turn of the year feels alert, almost sentient. A city thinking out loud. New Year’s Eve gathers at the Civic Center. Not a spectacle, but a collision. Fog, fireworks, improvised conversations. Founders,…
