Marina Girardi, Ortica, 2020

As a sort of spirit of Nature, capable of speaking with plants, animals, waters, lands, meteorological phenomena, Ortica accompanies the reader on a walk through Space and Time. The time of the seasons and the space of woods, mountains, fields, populated by living forms full of wisdom and in constant change, which populate everything with beauty. Flowers, trees, bushes, berries, leaves, mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, insects, hail, snow, sun, rain, ice – everything is named by Ortica with care and admiration.
