A plate for your town

A travelling exhibition across the Marche.

I offer town councils a maiolica work celebrating local identity and heritage. Each plate comes with a historical and descriptive account of what it depicts, turning the art into an emblem of cultural value for the community.

Inside the scrolled border go the monuments, the views and the coat of arms of the town. It is not generic decoration: every element is chosen with the council and written down, so the plate stays legible even to someone who has never been there.

For your council

If you represent a council and would like a plate dedicated to your town, write to me: we start from the elements that matter to you and build the drawing and the account together.
