Technique: textile sculpture in recycled nautical ropes, acrylic painting and epoxy resin

Description: The work was born after discussions with the local inhabitants and wants to represent the soul of the Sorrento people. Built on multiple levels, it highlights the visible peculiarities of the soul on the outermost plane and then moves to an unconscious level behind a plan. Their almost baroque complexity is highlighted in the foreground, represented by a multitude of knots which at the same time highlight the value of the strong sense of connection that the Sorrento has with the territory, with the community, with the family. We then move on to the lower level, digging into the soul trying to reconnect to the roots. This operation is done by linking to the Odyssey, and in particular to the passage of the sirens.
