On Saturday 24 October, the Leather Innovation Hub in Zermeghedo (Vicenza) will host Andrea Bianconi’s art installation: a 30-second immersive experience designed to help you slow down, listen and rediscover the value of positivityvità
October 2026
On Saturday 24 October 2026, from 10.00 to 18.00, at the GSC Group’s Leather Innovation Hub in Zermeghedo, visitors will be able to experience the ‘Positivity Cabin – 30 Seconds of Positivity’, Andrea Bianconi’s art installation.
Following stops in Milan for Simac Tanning Tech, then in Salò and Carrara, the Positivity Cabin returns home to the Veneto region to offer the community a special opportunity: to experience 30 seconds of positivity, before setting off for new destinations.
The artwork consists of a golden cabin accessible to one person at a time. Inside, visitors can enjoy a 30-second timed experience marked by darkness, silence, light and words. They are immersed in a soundscape made up of hundreds of ‘yes’es spoken by people from all over the world – an intimate invitation to pause, listen and embrace a mental ‘yes’. On leaving, each participant receives a golden pin bearing the inscription ‘Yesss’ as a talisman. For the artist, positivity is an act of courage. The project invites visitors to slow down from the frenetic pace of everyday life or the hustle and bustle of exhibition spaces.
Admission is free of charge, with no booking required.
