This work comes from the visual analysis of a collection of votive tablets found in the surroundings of Soliera (MO), a rural town in Emilia Romagna. Ex Voto panels are devotional paintings created by Catholic worshippers to pay tribute to the Virgin Mary for having saved them from various kinds of occurrences. 

This series is about the remains of a darkling time, about fading elements of a life based on hard work and harmless devotion when humans were nothing more than servants at the mercy of Nature’s grandeur.
