Pasqual Arnella at the Lucca Biennale Cartasia

3 December 2024

For many, paper is just an everyday material, but for those who value sustainability and art, it has become a gateway to new forms of expression and a commitment to the planet. In a time when resources must be managed responsibly, paper is taking on a new role: being part of the solution. At Pasqual Arnella, with our deep roots in the craftsmanship of paper, we cherish and promote this vision. We take pride in working daily with this versatile material, capable of inspiring and telling stories through every one of its forms.

Our participation in the Lucca Biennale Cartasia is a natural extension of this commitment. This prestigious event, which gathers artists, designers, and architects from around the globe, celebrates paper not just as a material but as a medium for innovation, tradition, and sustainability. For Pasqual Arnella, being part of this Biennale means not only showcasing our vision and creativity but also contributing to a platform that redefines paper as a symbol of responsibility and beauty. It demonstrates how art can drive change and act as a vehicle for fresh perspectives.

This year’s theme: “Here and Now: Tomorrow”

This edition of the Lucca Biennale Cartasia (LUBICA) invites us to reflect on the theme “Here and Now: Tomorrow”, a message that underscores the importance of making responsible choices today to care for tomorrow. This theme directly aligns with our vision at Pasqual Arnella, where we believe design and sustainability can work hand in hand to leave a positive mark on the future.

Art in paper: Expressing responsibility

For artists around the world, paper has become a medium of expression that transcends its practical function. It is a symbol of respect for our surroundings, a material that conveys a clear message about the importance of caring for the planet. At Pasqual Arnella, we are proud to contribute to this movement with our papier-mâché mannequins—a solution that combines functionality with sustainability. Thanks to the recommendation of Cartonlab, we were invited to LUBICA, where our mannequins featured in a space where creativity and sustainability complement each other.

A legacy of tradition and innovation

Pasqual Arnella has been in the business for generations, driven by a mission to create products that reflect our artisanal roots while championing sustainable innovation. Our recycled paper mannequins not only serve an aesthetic purpose but also embody our commitment to the environment. This fusion of tradition and innovation found the perfect stage at LUBICA, where we demonstrated how paper, when used consciously, holds immense potential in art and design.

Sustainability at heart

At Pasqual Arnella, we believe that every action, no matter how small, can make a difference. Although we are a small company, we collaborate with artists and designers who share our vision of a more conscious world, creating solutions that not only bring aesthetic value but also respect our environment. We work with dedication to continually improve, convinced that our efforts contribute to a more sustainable future.

The Lucca Biennale Cartasia and other events supporting the use of responsible materials remind us of the positive impact our choices can have on the world. At Pasqual Arnella, we will continue to explore the possibilities that paper offers—a material that, like us, evolves to meet the needs of a changing planet. With every project, we reaffirm our commitment to building a future where art, sustainability, and respect for our surroundings exist in harmony.
