BEACHED FISH

Walking in Park Gorkovo, one of the most beautiful park in Moscow, I saw this beached fish on the grass, ready to play with everyone who wanted.

Passeggiando nel Park Gorkovo, uno dei parchi più belli di Mosca, ho visto questo pesce arenato sull'erba, pronto per giocare con chiunque lo volesse.

The green lizard with red big eyes

In Moscow, near the school where my husband works, we saw this strange animal.
We called it "The green lizard with red big eyes".

A Mosca, vicino alla scuola dove lavora mio marito, abbiamo visto questo strano animale. 
Lo abbiamo chiamato "La lucertola verde con grandi occhi rossi".
C'era una volta una lucertola con il raffreddore. Nessuno aveva mai spiegato alle lucertole l'importanza dello starnuto. La lucertola si accorse che trattenendo gli starnuti vengono gli occhi rossi. Soltanto poi capì che gli sarebbero rimasti enormi. Povera lucertola con gli occhi rossi grandi.

The wolf and the stork | Illustration by Jean Effel

A long, long time ago, the wolf and the stork were friends. One day, the wolf asked the stork to come to his house to eat. When the stork arrived at the wolf’s house, the wolf put two bowls of soup on the table. The wolf ate his bowl of soup so quickly. When he finished, he asked the stork, “Did you like my soup?”
But, the stork was angry because he couldn’t eat the soup. His beak was too long. When the stork went home, he was still hungry. The wolf laughed and laughed. Then, the stork had an idea. He asked the wolf to come to dinner. He filled two tall pitches with good soup. They began to eat. When the stork finished eating, he asked the wolf if he wanted more to eat.
But, the wolf was angry. His mouth was so big that he couldn’t get it into the pitcher. The wolf went home hungry, and the stork laughed and laughed. The wolf and stork have never been friends ever since.

BALDESSARI 1+1=1

I think the idea of doubling from me issues from asking
whether two things that look alike are really the same, or if they're different.
It's a mindset, some people think that one thing looks like an other and others don't."

“Penso che l’idea di raddoppio parte dal chiedersi 
se due cose che sembrano simili sono uguali, oppure sono diverse. 
E’ una mentalità, alcune persone pensano una sia uguale all’altra, altre che sia diversa”.

YELLOW CATS IN SARAJEVO

Walking through Sarajevo you can meet yellow talking cats painted on the gray walls of the city. They can read a book indicating a library, or they can fly with their great white wings, or they can just smile.

Passeggiando per la città di Sarajevo s'incontrano gatti gialli parlanti dipinti sui muri grigi della città, che indicano una libreria leggendo un libro, o volano con le loro grandi ali bianche, o semplicemente sorridono a 32 denti.


M. Chat (Mister Cat) is a creation of the french-swiss artist Vuille Thoma and from the 1997 he travels in the cities around the world. So, watch out! You could meet M. Chat not only in Sarajevo...

M. Chat (il Signor Gatto) è una creazione dell'artista franco-svizzero Vuille Thoma e dal 1997 viaggia nelle città di tutto il mondo. Quindi attenzione! Potrete incontrare M. Chat non solo Sarajevo...

SPACE SHUTTLE BUTTERFLY

Funny as sometimes children can invent imaginary characters that exist only in their imagination...
Ted wanted to draw a space shuttle, but I recognize a butterfly. What do you think?

Strano come a volte i bambini riescano ad inventare personaggi fantastici, che esistono solamente nella loro immaginazione... 
Ted ha voluto disegnare una navicella spaziale, io invece riconosco una farfalla. Voi cosa ne pensate?
