Il Mollettaio - artworks and poems

Discover the world of Il Mollettaio, a Sicilian artist who transformed wooden clothespins into art, depicting sacred places and cathedrals, some of which are currently on public display and open to visitors. In addition to his artistic creations, Il Mollettaio also gave life to intense and evocative poems written in both Italian and Sicilian dialect. In the posthumously published book, you will find one section dedicated to the works created with wooden clothespins and another devoted to poems in Italian and Sicilian dialect, complete with translation and interpretation. This book is a tribute to a dream never realized in life, to share his creations and verses with the world.
