Italia o Italia

I was born and raised in Italy, but I always felt like a stranger. It wasn't until I moved abroad at the age of twenty that I began to notice the place, trying to figure out why everything seemed so familiar and yet so strange to me. That's when I decided to travel around the country and draw the opposite of a map: a labyrinth made up of fragments of its territory, a book you could wander through and get lost in, another Italy that cast a shadow over the one we know." - Federico Clavarino
