Sposa
Sposa recalls the catholic social fabric of the 1970s, which is the time period when the dress has been factured. In that time the Italian women were forced to pass through three essential life conditions: Virgin, Bride and Mother.
The work, with a romantic atmosphere, recalls that rite of passage which is marriage, where the stage of virgin becomes that of mother. The wedding dress’s image is empty, not worn, and represents the purity of virginity and also the desire to be a mother as fast as possible. The white wedding dress is a symbol of the Virgin Mary and recollects about that Italian tradition offering to the Virgin a wedding dress to beg a fertile marriage.
