Everything was celebrated on Wednesday 19 June in Guarene, at La Madernassa, with an event dedicated to the theme of nature and the support of actions against climate change.
Spotlight on the fight against climate change
Extreme climate trends also have serious implications on gender inequalities. In the last two years, Zonta International took action pro-climate change starting from the need to spread awareness that the climate is an issue that concerns human rights.
Thanks to the presence of various sponsors, during the evening the public was transported on an immersive journey of beauty and taste, starting from the fashion show Arkimya: thanks to the creativity of Elena Vecchi And Mariella Boffaand with the support of the group’s seamstresses Cuciamoci by the Pons Association, modern, unique and sustainable fabrics are made with an ancient technique, using leaves, flowers, roots and bark with dyeing properties.
From painting to fashion and bonsai
The awakening of the senses continued among the delicate images of Sumi-e painting of Zen monks, led by the master Beppe Mokuza Signoritti, founder of Bodaj Dojo. The monks are building a space in nature in Costigliole d’Asti, equipped with everything from water collection to reforestation.
The creations of also contributed to crowning this immersion in beauty Angelo Bordino, a goldsmith who finds inspiration in the nature that surrounds him, to create ornaments inspired by the plant world. To create his small sculptures in bronze and silver the techniques used are the most disparate: starting from the microsculpture in wax and then moving on to casting in bronze and silver.
Finally, the bonsai miniatures of Alessandro Bovio, disciple of the masters Hideo Suzuki and Keizo Andoo, creator of his own Garden “Zenji-en”, where he also holds lessons for those who want to delve deeper into bonsai art in all its facets.
