passionate about design, fashion, art, and creativity. I believe creativity is a powerful tool for exploration and self-expression which allows me to engage with graphic and web design. My work is driven by a desire to evoke happiness, foster human connection, and encourage self-discovery. I am fascinated by historical narratives, and I reinterpret them through a contemporary lens, making art more meaningful to modern audiences. Through my designs, I seek to bridge the past and present, transforming stories into visually compelling and emotionally resonant experiences.<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-492792a8 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"492792a8\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-37ec9911 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"37ec9911\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3><strong>Italia, A Story in Layers<\/strong><\/h3><p>I am Italian, and recently, I have been deeply exploring my cultural identity and what it truly means to be Italian. I hesitate to embrace and openly express that I am Italian because others often question me based on my appearance. Family is the heart of my life, and learning about my heritage has been an inspiring journey. This project has allowed me to fully step into my cultural identity with pride.<\/p><p>To represent my heritage, I chose collage as my medium\u2014a way to break preconceived notions and weave together my personal experiences with my family&#8217;s history; in my case, assumptions about what it means to \u201clook\u201d Italian. At the core of Italian culture is the deep bond of family, which is why I have centered my work around a traditional Italian dinner table. The iconic red and white checkered tablecloth serves as a symbol of warmth, tradition, and shared connection, reflecting the essence of what it means to be Italian. Around the table, I have placed three chairs, each holding deep meaning: one for my father, one for my grandmother, and one for myself. These three chairs represent the bridge between generations, the passing down of stories, values, and love. Above the table, a portrait collage hangs, tying all of these elements together. This project is a tribute to the love and sacrifices that have been passed down generations.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4bb22651 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"4bb22651\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-57a8b51a e-grid e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"57a8b51a\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1277fdc4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1277fdc4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b>WET PAINT<br \/><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">USFCA Design &amp; Fine Arts<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Class of 2025<br \/>Senior Projects<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5c8d2b05 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5c8d2b05\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.usfca.edu\/arts-sciences\/programs\/undergraduate\/design\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DESIGN<\/a><br \/><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/usfcadesign\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instagram<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/usfca.design\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Past Exhibitions<\/a><br \/><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ed05357 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ed05357\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.usfca.edu\/arts-sciences\/programs\/undergraduate\/fine-arts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FINE ARTS<\/a><br \/><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/usfcafinearts\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instagram<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-49815264 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"49815264\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><a href=\"https:\/\/usfca.design\/2025\/information\/\"><strong>INFORMATION<\/strong><\/a><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/usfca.design\/2025\/exhibition\/\"><strong>EXHIBITION<\/strong><\/a><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/usfca.design\/2025\/directory\"><strong>DIRECTORY<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Exhibition Information Directory Sofia Momo Pronouns: she\/herMajor: Design I am a designer based in San Francisco who is passionate about design, fashion, art, and creativity.
