TU SEI AGATA
Opera partecipata

"Tu Sei Agata" is a collective project conceived by the artist Domenico Pellegrino, which celebrates Saint Agatha, a symbol of strength, resilience, and rebirth.
"Tu Sei Agata" invites everyone to be part of an artistic and community gesture, bringing together fragments of lives and personal stories into a single collective work of great visual and emotional impact.
The designer Marella Ferrera, described by the artist as a modern Penelope, will be the creative soul of this process. In her atelier, she will sew together the donated fragments, transforming them into a cloak that will be the star of a spectacular one-kilometer public parade during the Saint Agatha procession in 2026.
