Conquest of the Garden
Conquest of the Garden is the suspended voyage of two small metatemporal superheroes. Their superpowers are curiosity and love. They observe and they are observed while travelling on balloons, dinosaurs and giant dragonflies.
Their adventurous expedition happens to be
in Iran, but it could be anywhere grace of life is revealed. The title is taken from the poem
of the Iranian poetess Forugh Farrokhzad.

Game of the Goose
I asked a dear friend from Pakistan to explain to me the experience of a refugee arriving in Italy from his home country.
Hence the idea of the game of the goose that revisits the fundamental stages of a refugee upon arrival in Italy.
I illustrated freely their life in reception centers, Italian bureaucracy and racism, solidarity, friendship and more, until they got the so-desired residence permit: the Holy Grail that symbolically determines their acceptance in the community we all belong to.
I then decided to dedicate the last box to a sort of Noah's Ark: a reminder we are all in the same boat.
The background used for the project comes from a traditional Mexican board game.
