Singolare Plurale

From the typographical carpets of the Sardinian tradition to the narration of the tarot cards, from the fairy-tale creatures to the religious iconographic tradition – Singular Plural investigates the contemporary reinterpretations of the cultural archetypes and historical symbolisms of such a varied traditional Italian culture, which are harmonically and coherently inserted in local surroundings.The recovery of pre-existing traditions and historical iconographies thus occurs through new linguistic and visual codes, showing how one can reconnect with an ancestral culture through a modern process of interpretation. The first and most important feature of the selected projects is research (bibliographic, iconographic, photographic, oral, archival) inherent in traditions, cultures, symbolisms, conceptual and physical archetypes linked to the territories of local communities, which are then recontextualized in an up-to-date key through the use of different expressive languages.
