Bimbingamba is a project of Alex Zanardi and Sergio Campo. Lot of nternational exponents of the techno-medical panorama have attend and contributed to this project. The goal is to offer kids who belong to impoverished families, the possibility to fix the problem of the lack of upper or lower body parts, thanks to the cooperation of the Ottobock's rehabilitation center MTR in Budrio and its supply of prosthneses and Franco Ferri and Claudio Panizzi, two physical therapists.
I wanted to join them in this amazing project by making the artistic personalisation of a beetle. This work, realised thanks to the important help and support of Dei Kafer Service, in occasion of the 25th international Beetle meetup, was given to Alex Zanardi in occasion of the 25th Venice Marathon. Afterwards the beetle was used as a symbol of positivity and has gone around Italy for two years and gathered almost 40.000.00 Euro thanks to a lottery that had place in five Italian cities: Siena, L'Aquila, Pescara, Ancona and Ascoli Piceno, thanks to the help of the Rotary Club International too. All the money have been donated to the "Bimbingamba" project and to the university of L'Aquila.
