A community workshop exploring the meaning of home.
Radici in Movimento was a two-part creative workshop and community event designed to explore a simple but powerful question: What does “home” mean to you?
Hosted in collaboration with a temporary residence for refugee families housed in a retired convent, the workshop brought together children from different cultural backgrounds to express their stories visually through drawing and collage. The goal was to open dialogue, build empathy, and give kids space to define home in their own words and images.

For the second event, we curated a public exhibition of the children’s artwork. To protect the walls of the historic space, we scanned and printed each piece individually, mounting them on lightweight boards suspended across the room. The families living at the residence were all invited to attend, and the exhibition also featured the work of a documentary photographer who has spent time capturing portraits and daily life inside the convent.
This project was about listening, translating emotion into art, and creating visibility for voices often unheard. It was a quiet but powerful reminder of the role design can play in shaping not just visuals—but community.
