Design in Italy in critical times

Souvenir Mediterraneo
Sonia Pedrazzini

Souvenir Mediterraneo are a series of ex vote handmade terracotta, which lose their sacred value to assume a more laic and profane one. The ex vote typical of the traditional Mediterranean religious folk culture, are usually in silver, rather in this case they are made in simple terracotta, becoming a souvenir of an experience and a memory of a special place.

icon-archi Sonia Pedrazzini grew up in Capri and graduated in Industrial Design in Rome. Beyond creating products for the market, she is involved in popular and cultural aspects of contemporary society and dedicates time to more experimental, inquisitive projects, bordering between art, design and communication.
