Secret Garden
Alessandra Calò
This book collects and rescues from oblivion a series of negatives depicting portraits of women. Inspired by herbals and her constant search for themes relating to the feminine, the artist creates arboreal visions, symbolising the secret garden hidden within each of us. Each portrait acquires a new identity thanks to the involvement of contemporary female authors invited by the artist to write a story inspired by it. The book is an intimate diary of great topicality made up of reality and imagination centred on social themes linked to the female figure.
