With the series Indigenous People I meant to exalt the willpower and the valour of the man, that fights daily to regain the past in order to retain it in the space that saw it being born and to return it enriched with experience to the future of his peoples.

Fantasy, inspiration, words, images… thoughts, writings.

I decided to hang among these worlds in search of a junction factor suitable to interpret the charm and the magic. The fountain pen is no longer a plain writing tool, but a "leading object", a symbol of continuity and, at the same time, of evolution and of conversion. I intended to give a deeper meaning to the flowing of the ink, facing myself with the story of the indigenous peoples that still nowadays fight to survive.

At time I held intact the ties with the roots by exciting them; some other times I favoured the present simply intimating the origins, without forgetting its deeper meaning. In each of the objects the heritage and the innovation merge with unique goal: to walk out the cliché and to arouse new excitements.
