Marchetta laghee n. 5 Print

This artwork was born as a part of a series called Marchette laghee.. It was my social research and experiment, I wanted to understand first if people are knowing the meaning of these words and what the first thought comes first. The word Marchetta in Italian has three different meanings: 1.The first one means Brand used in the past to prove the payment of insurance contributions. 2. The second and very common means Token that prostitutes received for each service. 3. Third stands for accepting an occasional job with poor professional satisfaction for the money. Laghee in Italian jargon means someone who lives by the lake Como and Maggiore and/or speaks the dialect of the native lakeshore habitats. Since I'm deeply in love with Lake Como sunsets so I couldn't stay away from painting it on raw silk made in Como..
