E poi c’è la terra is a small picture book with a great text that reflects on many things: on the divisions, the individual and collective responsibilities, on the uniqueness, on the diversity, the wealth of a few and the poverty of many. In short, this book speaks about our Earth-Planet that we have loaded with injustices, leading to a bitter conclusion: and then there is the earth, below, where the differences we’ve created don’t exist. The abstract illustrations are made of cloth, threads and colored papers, by Giulia Ceccarani, illustrator and designer.

The book begins with a brief description of the tools and the technics (pastels, collage, photos, watercolors, embroideries...), knowing that technics, style and size can radically change the final result.

Once upon a time there was a swampy place where people spent an immutable and dull everyday life. Rocks didn’t bounce on the water surface and children would die out of boredom. One day, however, someone arrives from a mysterious place and transforms that stillness into an unstoppable wave.
