One of my polaroids for the Luogo/Non Luogo project (place/non place).

The top two photos became postcards – the radiator is in our salonetta and the Roman columns are part of the base of the Portoni Borsari (near our apartment).

Steve’s “Luogo/Non Luogo” polaroid.

This piece is for a project in conjunction with the Centro Studi Immigrazioni, called “Nella mia città nessuno è straniero.” (In my city, no one is a foreigner). Cestim is a pro-immigrant organization that assists stranieri with their documents and tries to fight racism in the public schools, newspapers, etc etc.

Each artist illustrated a quote based on the theme of tolerance. Here’s mine:
La forza di una lingua non consiste nel respingere ciò che è straniero, ma nell’assimilarlo.

The strength of a language does not lie in rejecting what is foreign, but assimilating it.

—Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
