FUORI CAMPO — Dariomanzo.jpg


The poster begins with this statement and fully inhabits it. Typography does not illustrate the concept: it becomes the field itself. The invisible lines of the game fracture the text, rotate it, interrupt it. The field cannot be seen, yet it acts. It is there, as it has always been. The asterisks are the bodies in play — present, still in the game. The composition does not merely represent the playground; it simultaneously undergoes and challenges it. If one tries replacing the word “body” with “sex,” “work,” “gender,” or “world,” the sentence still holds meaning. This is because it is not only the body that is governed: every layer of our existence takes part in a game whose rules we did not write. Perhaps our task is to break those lines, make them visible, step outside the rules of the game, and become free.

Dariomanzo.jpg is a graphic designer with a background in architecture and design, specializing in graphic design. His practice moves within the field of social design, where rigor and irony coexist, turning design into a tool for awareness and social change. Through his work, he explores queer imaginaries, gender issues, and contemporary visual languages — treated not simply as subjects to represent, but as living spaces for research, storytelling, and cultural transformation.
