TAVOLE (TABLES) Since I was a child I've loved the tables around which my large family would gather on special occasions, be they at my parents' or my grandparents' homes. With this project I wanted to re-live some shared meals that carry a special meaning to me: by transferring the memories of food and guests onto these familiar fabrics, I recreated the snapshots of those convivial moments ... my personal exhibits.
