CABALA—bag

"Each CABALA-bag is unique and illustrates one of the lottery numbers in the Kabbalah, 54. Each Kabbalah number is associated with dreamlike elements that interpret different meanings based on the context of the dream and the dreamer. In each region, these symbols may change or overlap, depending on the traditions.

Each CABALA-bag illustrates the different symbols that the number represents. The symbol embroidered in a different color recalls the main figure associated with the number, but it is also the symbol that, in some cases, unites the different regional Kabbalahs. CABALA-bag aims to be a different kind of good luck charm, a representation of the connection between various regional cultures, but with similar symbols and desires that led to the birth of the "smorfia" and the lotto, a game closely linked to Kabbalah. Creativity and the hope of a better life for oneself and for one's loved ones create a uniquely Italian superstitious belief, which each of us lives out in our own way in our daily lives. Each CABALA-bag comes with a tombola token with an NFC tag that, in addition to displaying the number 54 tells, to anyone who wants it, the interpretation of the various figures illustrated on the C-bag."

ITALIA PAZZA explores a profound and unconventional idea of ​​beauty, one that transcends aesthetics to embrace ethics, imagination, local culture, and care. A beauty born of creative madness, of that quintessentially Italian spark capable of going "beyond the norm."
During the residency, in addition to a fully hand-embroidered bag, 50 unique touchée pieces were created, incorporating a hand-embroidered detail with gold thread.
A silkscreen print run of 150 SHOPPING BAGS was also produced.
