BEFORE THE SNOW MELTS by Tanio Liotta.
BEFORE THE SNOW MELTS IS A BOW-TIES SERIES INSPIRED BY WINTER
Like a Christmas tale, the collections introduces itself with the first piece, recreating the image of the first day of snow, than it continues like a book, in which every page represents a specific moment, a particular emotion, a memory or a tradition, the joy of this amazing time of the year…
Before the snow melts is the last project made by the Italian artist Tanio Liotta (26 yo from Milan), already famous for his bow-ties, homage to his childhood spent in his grandfather’s tailor shop. He uses them as a canvas, building their shape with different techniques and materials, working on this symbol in order to make small installations in which recreate imaginary worlds taken out from everyday stories, ancient memories and life emotions.
