Mama é Papa mi ricordo

Description

"Mamma e' Papa mi ricordo" is a powerful artwork that illuminates the traumatic story of a woman who was sexually abused as a child within her family and could only confide in a diary. The diary, which disappeared after its discovery, is represented by her handprint and a key. The blank pages connect the diary to an unwritten, shattered future and simultaneously symbolize the discovery of truth. The blank pages represent lost memories and unspoken stories, the key represents courage, disclosure, and the possibility of rewriting one's own history. At its heart is the remarkable strength of the survivor and the urgent message that healing is only possible through recognition, acknowledgment, and speaking the truth. The work is a plea for remembrance, justice, and personal reclaiming of one's own story.
