LETTERATURA
DI: FELICITY
ARIS
Inspired by the uncertain and volatile events of the Italian elections, this poem and accompanying artwork aims to capture the current fragmented and unfamiliar Italian landscape. Built on the fact that they don’t fit together, the altered words and pictures allow for the scene to transform into a very different portrait - perhaps one that fits better. Thus, despite the instability of the illustration, perhaps there is hope in the binding.
