AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Technical data sheet
Title: DO NOT CONFORM; Author: Mattia Bonora (Italy); Creation: November 2025; Technique: acrylic, spray paint, and gold leaf on canvas; Dimensions: 75x55; Support: canvas on wooden stretcher; Signature: on the back, indelible.
Descriptive sheet
This statement affirms an essential principle: you must not adhere to the 'expected' form.
Society tends to repeat the same pattern, mechanizing it until what is similar becomes permanently identical. Those who try to break free from this catatonic rhythm are first punished, then corrected, and finally face the worst: they are standardized. However, this fabric stands in stark contrast to that, rejecting such pressure.
The color that changes in the pattern is not an error: it’s proof that the difference can remain visible, even without having to ask for permission.
Not conforming doesn't mean opposing everything. It means not erasing yourself to be accepted. It means recognizing your identity, remaining true to yourself, even when the context pushes in a single direction. Those who choose to stand out do not break the balance: they redefine it.
This manifesto defends the right to that choice. It teaches that a minimal deviation is already a political act. That being true to oneself is more valuable than resembling others. That uniformity is not a destiny: it is a surrender.
"DO NOT CONFORM" really means this: protect what makes you unique. Keep your shape. Stay alive.
