The inspiration for this project comes from the Basilica of San Gennaro in Antignano. Located in one of the oldest areas of the hilly district of Vomero, it is one of the many places of worship dedicated to the patron and martyr of Naples.
The bas-relief on the front and the symbols related to the saint, were elements of inspiration for the creation of the parato.
In 1600 the famous painting depicting the Madonna with Child (“Madonna dell’Arco”), was secured and placed inside a small marble temple designed by Bartolomeo Picchiati.
Today those colorful geometries that frame the painting, have been used as inspiration for the realization of this liturgical set.
For the realization of the altar cloth for the parish of Santa Maria Assunta we wanted to use as a reference the gold decorations on the tabernacle, together with Marian elements, including the statue of the Virgin.
Personalized project dedicated to the church belonging to the Archdiocese of Reggio Calabria – Bova.
The inspiration for this project comes from the floor of the church, its simple geometries in warm tones, have been the subject for the realization of the stolons
Custom project made for the Basilica Cathedral of saint Marco, Venice.
Reproduction embroidery of cosmic cross present on the domes of the Basilica.
“The sacred garments of the High Priest are rich in symbolism […] The names of the twelve tribes of Israel were also engraved on the breastplate (cfr Es 28,21). This means that the priest celebrates by carrying on his shoulders the people entrusted to him and carrying his names engraved in his heart. When we clothe ourselves with our humble chasuble it can do us good to feel the weight and face of our Faithful people, of our saints and martyrs, who are so many at this time!”
This is what Pope Francis preached during the Chrism Mass on March 18, 2013, and it is from this specific homily that the idea for this liturgical parade was born.
The theme of the people, of the faithful who become weight and joy in the heart of the Priest, is revisited and developed for the Diocese of Nola. The latter includes 41 municipalities, divided into 8 deaneries, and it is precisely these 8 areas of the city that have been used as the pincipal theme of the parade: small jewels set and inserted in the stolons of the chasuble.
The realization of this chasuble takes inspiration from the ceiling of the Sanctuary of Santa Maria dei Miracoli.
Giovanni Antonio Amadeo, renaissance architect and sculptor who dedicated himself to the construction of the nave, also took part in the construction work, developing a monumental vaulted barrel vault for which the church is still famous today.
he realization of this cope comes from a painting by Vittore Crivelli, “Madonna with Child with San Basso and San Sebastiano” dated 1475-1499. The painting today is exposed in Cupra Marittima, in the church named to the patron saint of the city, San Basso.
The idea was to reproduce as faithfully as possible the piviale worn by the saint, recreating specifically the numerous decorations on the stolons of the board
In 1915 a terrible earthquake hit Avezzano completely destroying the Cathedral of San Bartolomeo, however only one object was spared and found in the rubble: a decorated pillar.
The geometric ribbon pattern of this pillar was then used as the basis for the construction of the liturgical set.
The inspiration for this project comes from the ceiling of the Church. The rich gold geometries that embellish the central part of the nave, along with the arches that serve as a contour have been the subject of analysis and study of the work.
The ceiling of the Cathedral, built in the mid-thirteenth century and recognized as the oldest monument of the city, was the inspiration for this project.
The rich geometries of golden chests that adorn the interior of the Duomo were subject of analysis and study of labor.
Project dedicated to the Basilica of the Holy Sepulchre of Barletta, a church built in the fourteenth century and famous destination for pilgrims heading to the Holy Land.
The inspiration for this project comes from the apse frescoes that adorn the interior of the Basilica, specifically a small detail was the basis in the creation of stolons.
