Going back in memory and considering “archaeological discoveries” the Gòrgone of Selinunte with serpent like hair and the nymph of Arethusa , then Demetra and Persefone, they have all come back to life, these pagan divinities are present and become sublime in maternity and virginity: women who were born from the Great Mediterranean Mother, personifying the Earth. “Mythological” paintings of old potters wonderfully sewn on soft clay color crochet nets, embroidered filet corsets inventing rose patterns, terracotta jewels are repeated as symbols of the pagan “island”. Using poor raffia and gold and silver from offerings, the lead black of a Good Friday and the purple red on the altars, the embroidered “tear-drops”, and material designed to create “thorns” and rose petals: laser cut roses having a sculpture effect or stamped on soft tulle with a pictorial effect. A chromatic choice and emotional force are superimposed and blended giving way to a symbolic force immune from sacrilege but emerged in the sacred, in a continuous research of a religious sentiment almost a safe refuge from the deep anxieties characterizing the end of this millennium. The devotion to Saints and Madonnas remind us of the Madonna painted by Antonello da Messina and the unique war: Madonna on horseback and armed with a sword in Scicli, the same sword on Marrella Ferrera’s woman-Madonna symbolizes protection and defence, from the fury of time, man’s carelessness and the artistic patrimony of an island: from the Dome in Noto to the mosaics in Piazza Armerina, broken and ruined stones recomposed again organizing and replacing the past centuries.
