Projects
  • Psychedelia
    PsychedeliaThe project “Wonderland Fields” is a series of prints inspired by the theme of imagination. “Wonderland Fields” are the ideal home of imagination where is possible to escape from reality to discover a new world. The journey ends analysing the effects of psychedelic drugs on the human mind. They alter in a sensible way perceptions, thoughts and sensations, causing colorful hallucinations. This kind of drugs were widely common between exponents of ‘60s hippie culture, who wanted to expand their mi
  • The Order of Tangle
    The Order of TangleThe aim of the Formode project is the creation of a shape dress, starting from 4 inspiring elements. These 4 elements are:Judas tree, Napoleonic Empire, urban gothic style and aquatic effect.
  • After Fifteen Minutes
    After Fifteen MinutesCollection inspired by the life and death of Edie Sedgwick, that exams the cult of celebrity and its perils. Edie Sedgwick was Andy Warhol’s muse and friend and one of his most famous superstar. She starred in many Warhol movies, as the “poor rich girl”, and became a main character in the Factory silver world. Fame made her feel loved, but she was soon forgotten e left in an oblivion of drugs and self-distruction. The collection wants to analyse the doble face of celebrity, that hides ruin and disintegration behind a patina of perfection. The main tool to pursue this aim is a series of prints inspired by pop-art and particularly by Warhol’s work. Pop symbols characterising each design are modified to create an unpleasant sense of disorder.
  • R.E.M. Rare Earth Mentals
    R.E.M. Rare Earth MentalsThe project “Wonderland Fields” is a series of prints inspired by the theme of imagination. “Wonderland Fields” are the ideal home of imagination where is possible to escape from reality to discover a new world. The second stop of the journey, named R.E.M., is represented by the inner world everyone builds through the power of fantasy. The acronym was changed from Rapid Eye Movement to Rare Earth Mentals. The “Rare Earth” is the fictional world inhabited by “Mentals”, insane and creepy characters representing the most remote feelings of the human soul. Each character was created mixing protagonists from Tim Burton’s movies and Beatles songs. Every design is handmade.
  • Post-Modern Fairytale
    Post-Modern FairytaleThe project “Wonderland Fields” is a series of prints inspired by the theme of imagination. “Wonderland Fields” are the ideal home of imagination where is possible to escape from reality to discover a new world. Post-Modern Fairytale is the beginning of the journey in which we are driven to the fairy world. Fairytales have a meaningful importance because they constitute the ideal background of individual’s imaginative process, the shape on which the same concept of imagination is built. Each print represents a fairytale and it was constructed through digital collage, collecting from fashion photography.
  • Wonderland Fields
    Wonderland FieldsDigital print is the tool employed to explore artistic potential in fashion, applying rich designs with their own artistic value on simple garments. The title “Wonderland Fields” quotes “Alice in Wonderland” tale portraits in the homonymous Tim Burton’s movie and one of the Beatles masterpiece “Strawberry Fields Forever”, summarising the main sources of inspiration. “Wonderland Fields” are the ideal home of imagination where is possible to escape from reality to discover a new world. The aim is to take a trip through unknown lands, rarefied sceneries, an upside down universe where there are no rules and space and time are never ending. In the creation of this unreal world were analysed the work of many artists of imagination like Hans Christian Andersen and Grimm brothers fairytales, Tim Burton’s movies and Beatles songs, mixed together in order to create a psychedelic and post-modern atmosphere.
