The coauthors of the covers are persons enrolled in substance abuse treatment & rehabilitation programmes carried out in the residential communities run by CE.I.S. Livorno ETS Impresa Sociale. Plus a child (son of a community worker)! With the supervision of Lorenzo Scacchia & Luisa Elefante (project coordinator at CE.I.S.), they took part in photographic trips along the Livorno seafront & to the woods of Collesalvetti.
Following individual & group meetings with Scacchia – assisted by staff from the three therapeutic communities involved – each of them chose a photograph & coined the corresponding title. Elements he then harmonised into a graphic dress in order to create the exhibited covers.
Legend for the exhibition mounting
The mosaic of small affixed photographs tells the story behind the trips.
The fluttering sheets were written by the coauthors (& can be read on Covers). Their arrangement – which will cause quite a few stiff necks among those present – is inspired by the libeccio wind, which blows from the southwest along the Livorno coast.
