This project investigates the relationship between dandelions and sundials, telling the history and culture of Val di Sole, in Trentino. Starting from an analysis of an ancient herbarium and written memories of my family, I rebuilt the meaning, role and usage of this flower in the territory. The goal is to connect the present with the past through a traditional object diffused in the valley, the sundials, which portray traditions and values of the territory. The elaborate presents connections and analogies between sundials and diapositives of my family dated back to the 60’s.
