The creator of the “Sicilian state of mind” collection searches for objects from the past that convey emotions linked to memory. She selects, re-sews, removes paint and repaints, disassembles and reassembles with the aim of bringing many obsolete objects back to new interpretations of utility. Each piece of furniture is assembled by hand and transformed into a unique piece. Her happy dexterity and attention to tradition make her a testimony of the importance of conservation and possible reinterpretation in a contemporary key for the artisan design market.
