The illustrator
Carla Pucci da Filicaja is one of the most famous Italian botanical illustrators that has took part in numerous exhibitions in Italy. In addition to Aboca, she has also created botanical iconographies and naturalistic tables for the Department of Botanical Sciences at the University of Sassari and for Guccio Gucci Spa. Thus she writes about his love for botanical illustration: «I chose to follow the Green, which for me has no limits neither technical nor scientific: it is only life. That’s why I love plants, sources of unlimited and original inspiration, and I paint them because I’m fascinated by their captivating uniqueness. From the encounter with the plant comes the natural portrait and the hand moves following the emotions inspired by listening to the "vegetable song". Gliding through the mysterious tangle of an ivy, I get lost in the intricate branching of a tree to observe and listen. I listen to the speeches of plants, dialogues of very evolved and sophisticated beings, sensitive lives that move, that communicate with each other and with who is able to hear them».
