Ciccia Pillicca

A small notebook kept in the bag that was once used to sell sugar, meant to inspire you with "sweet" thoughts. Inside, you'll also find a small story connected to sweet things: the story of Ciccia Pillicca, a traditional character from Trapani.

Together with the notebook, you'll get a paper lollipop, to let you inspire by sweetness.

Edizioni Precarie (Precarious Edition) is a project that uses the traditional food-wrapping paper of the markets in Palermo to create notebooks and other objects. This paper has a very special consistency, with its patterns and colors and it gives life to unique objects that tell the story of Palermo's markets, a "precarious" reality which is slowly disappearing.

The disappearance of Sicilian traditions serves as a staring point for a deeper reflection on precariousness as a phenomenon of our time, which touches all.
