About

Lucia Carmagnola, from Genoa, moved to Milan to study fashion design. Her city of
origin, with its colors, dockyards, damp walls and architectural irregularity has unconsciously influenced her imagination.
I started designing and creating clothes to satisfy a personal need: to feel comfortable with my body and the space around me. By wearing garments made by me, I began to know myself better and gain more self-confidence. Thus, punto_zero was born—a way to transform one's personality, just as the number zero changes depending on how it is placed. What I create is a flow of languages, meanings, and noises. By telling and expressing myself, I create distortions: what I make are mutations of my "self." Influenced by the metallic noises of the electronic devices I constantly use, I manage to reconcile the concept of the body with them, reading their poetic and philosophical content. The narrative is one of fluid movement, distorted, hidden and uncovered, identically self-repeated and deceptive, occurring in an atmosphere of desolation, inadequacy, and restlessness.
