THE SYMBOLIC "CAMELLIA BENCH" AT THE ROYAL PALACE OF CASERTA The artwork, a red bench reproducing a large camellia—a steel piece, composed of enormous hand-shaped petals; at the center, the stamens rise—the symbolic flower chosen to keep attention high on the important issue of gender-based violence. "Created as a place for pause and awareness, and aims to be not only a symbol of freedom, but also an invitation to experience public space as a place of care, attention, and encounter."
