Viva Vittoria in Cervia
The opera Viva Vittoria arrives in Cervia
Sunday 6th October 2024
Thousands of knitted squares will cover Cervia's public beach to say NO to violence against women
Viva Vittoria is a participatory art project resulting from the collaboration of a group of Cervia women with the voluntary association Viva Vittoria ODV of Brescia.
The aim of the work is to raise awareness against violence against women through the idea that violence can be stopped by starting with the women themselves, from the awareness that everyone can be the author of their own life.
The project involves people from all over the community who are asked to make a 50x50 cm knitted square, by needle or crochet, to be signed with their name.
The collected squares are then stitched by a red thread to create blankets that will be spread along the free beach in Cervia, giving life to the installation.
