‘Casciuniddu’

Fabio Cammarata in collaboration with CL Italia

Fabio Cammarata’s project focuses on the theme of memory: a box, Casciuniddu, gathers personal objects in a precious form in wood polished to a mirror finish with resin. The cover is in perforated wood with Roman cross decorations typical of the churches of southern Italy. The key and keyhole are in silver-plated metal with anthropomorphic motifs.

Il progetto di Fabio Cammarata si concentra sul tema della memoria e del ricordo: una scatola, o Casciuniddu, raccoglie oggetti personali, una forma preziosa in legno lucidato a specchio con resine. Il coperchio è in legno traforato con i decori a croce romana,  tipici dei confessionali delle chiese del sud Italia. La toppa e la chiave sono realizzate in metallo argentato a motivi antropomorfi.
