The Talisman Series is inspired by the wish that, implicitly, our ancient fathers and mothers enclosed in small objects to keep with them, so that the beauty (and the good) might overcome evil and adverse fortune.
What today we generically refer to as jewellery, trinkets, bijoux descends in fact from different declinations of objects that men and women since ancient times used to adorn the body, attributing to them a semantic cipher that transformed them, to all intents and purposes, into language.
