HUMANS stories
A walk-in Alexandria brought us in front of a window with welcoming and unusual writing, “Come in to have a look is not a crime”. Needless to say, I leave from there with the Sbirra, a craft beer flavored with citrus fruits from the Prison of Syracuse… It is illegal not to drink it together […]

The dominant model of textile industry follows a violent and vicious process characterised by exploitation, overproduction and waste. […]
The first time I met Adna’s sweet and witty eyes, we were at University, in the same classroom with Mihaela, one of the precious protagonists of HUMANS… I have always admired her resourcefulness at lesson and the ability to work in group, discreetly drawing the trajectory that would lead everyone else to a good result.
