The female fighters in the italian Resistence were fundamental presences for the partisan victory, invisible to the enemy but present and altruistic with their companions.
The proposal consists of a composition of 12 thin steel blades, similar but different from each other and positioned irregularly on a circular pattern in the center of the planter.
The lightness of its silent presence creates closures and openings, full and empty which change as the perspective changes. It is a sculpture that has a different image that changes with the changing position of the observer. As changeable as the soul but as steel as the character of those women who decided to go against common sense, resisting fear, risk and the convenience of aligning themselves with a thought they didn’t believe in.
