semester
ISOLA is an editorial project about Pantelleria, a tiny piece of land in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, between Europe and Africa. It is an island unlike any other, a separate world where nature and mankind coexist in an organic whole. Therefore, in the three main chapters in which the magazine is divided, people’s stories are incorporated with those of the nature of the island. Its extreme conditions have forced islanders to find survival solutions, that have made their bond to the land undeniable. Those who arrive there, by birth or by chance, inevitably become part of a place that is not only a geographical boundary, but also a welcoming frontier, reminding us of how fragile, yet exceptional the human condition is.
