THE ROOTS

FAMILY TREES

If the cabrei also describe places in a historical sense, the family trees illustrate family origins and often the place where they have their roots. As with the cabrei, the family trees that I conceive draw free inspiration from the classical tradition, both from the graphic and concept point of view. Like the cabrei, every step is done in collaboration with the customer, according to a creative exchange. The first phase of the project, in which the tree is given shape and structure, is followed by drafting a “fair copy” by hand, in watercolor and ink, on fine 100% cotton paper.
