While walking the narrow vicoli of the historic center I noticed print-outs of poems on a door of an old cantina and was shortly afterwards introduced by my friends to Giuliana Zimei. The Signora, Poetesa e Grafica, now in her late sixties is a very creative person. With simple means she decorates cardboard-paper, pieces of wood and often ordinary household items in a variety of styles. Her work which she proudly showed me in her small casa was widely exhibited. She is also talented with the gift of putting words into poetry. Her subjects the locality, life and family, news are often executed with wisdom and a great sense of humour.
The Donna "con cuore grande" not only gave me copies of her poems and a copy of her grafics but opened her heart at the end of her visit singing a beautiful canzone to me...
Saluti Giuliana!
