This project is my way to show the defenceless and oppressed girls in the world the attention they deserve, with different variations of dresses made in marble and stones. The dress represents an armour and protection against the horrid injustice many children are facing in the world today. Therefore this feminine frame became the foundation of the series of sculptures named Nuova Vita – New Life. The repetetive shape of the dress states that all children in the society today deserves an innocent and safe childhood. When can the children dream of a future when there are no space or opportunity of daydreaming? All the different dresses that stands together symbolizing a new life, with hope, and dreams of a future without poverty and oppression.
The sculptures are for sale, each made in limited editions and of course original numbered. Contact for details.
