Resisting Beyond
This concerned the idea of identifying personalities from the recent past who had an important role in opposing dictatorships and fighting for the liberation of poorer social classes.
I wanted to highlight certain, lesser known figures, who have declared the importance and the necessity for humankind to fight for freedom and progress, taking into consideration their own reactions as an exclusive bonus.
I created six works dedicated to these characters: “Louise’s petticoat” for Louise Michel, “Errico’s Black Wings” for Errico Malatesta, “Like the Wind in the Storm” for Amilcare Cipriani, “The Knocked-over Door” for Giuseppe Gracceva, “Dangerous Galleries” for Pietro Cocco, “Giacomo’s Three Roots” for Giacomo Corcella.
