Materia (Prisma) (transl. Material: Prism) is the eighth studio album by Italian singer-songwriter Marco Mengoni, released by Sony Music Italy on 26 May 2023 as the final installment of the trilogy, Materia, consisting of three separately-released chapters: Terra, Pelle, and Prisma.
Each part revolves around one of the album's central themes of Mengoni's personal musical journey throughout his career. Lyrically, Prisma is about the artist's self-reflection and musically the album is primarily a pop and R&B record that features soul, gospel and blues influences.
The album peaked at number one of the Italian Albums Chart, becoming his sixth album to top the chart. The album's lead single "Due vite" won the Sanremo Music Festival 2023 and competed during the Eurovision Song Contest 2023, where it placed fourth, winning the Marcel Bezençon Awards for its musical composition.
