Le Voci Delle Macerie

In Decem­ber 2022, I stum­bled upon a per­plex­ing earth­quake that not only affect­ed my entire fam­i­ly, but also became the cat­a­lyst for their migra­tion to Switzer­land. In my quest for under­stand­ing, I delved into archives, exam­ined images and con­duct­ed three enlight­en­ing inter­views with my moth­er, a vil­lage res­cuer and a his­to­ri­an. The pro­found impact of this event on my fam­i­ly and the broad­er region of South­ern Italy will now be unrav­eled through this book, which serves as my diplo­ma project. With­in its cov­ers, you will have the oppor­tu­ni­ty to relive this trau­mat­ic occur­rence through an array of com­pelling con­tent, includ­ing archival doc­u­ments, evoca­tive pic­tures, grip­ping inter­views, insights into the present con­di­tion of the vil­lages and statistics.
