Italy 2022

We went to the other indoor paper exhibit – Fashion -  held at Villa Bottini. It explores the link between fashion and paper. Remember all the exhibits (1 outdoor and 2 indoor) are created out of paper. I can't impress you enough with how  delicate they are and how  time consuming it must have been to  create each – both mentally and physically. Art is wondrous in all its forms.

In these annual paper exhibits Lucca highlights its identity as the Paper Capitol of the World.


Remember it is all paper created
