Fashion scarf Nopalli

The ancient Aztecs called it NOPALLI and considered it their symbol. According to Aztec tradition, when this people still wandered aimlessly in the desolate lands of northern Mexico, they said that when they saw an eagle perched on a cactus, they would have to build their own homeland. Legend has it that such an event took place on a desert islet of a lake in the Mexico Valley area. Here they founded what became their splendid capital TENOCHTITLA whose name meant: “the place where I abandon the fruits of the NOPALLI cactus that stands on the great stone”. Today the prickly pear appears in the coat of arms of the Mexican Republic.

It is a unique piece, ooak.

Story

It was around eighteen months ago, scrolling my Instagram feed, when I first spotted Stefania Morgante's brilliant artistic scarfs. I fell in love immediately with the abstract design and colours and had to own one. Without delay we began the order, the payment and posting processing began. So we wait, Stefania checking in regularly , 'please, has it arrived'? I impatiently tracked my purchase on it's long journey from Italy to Australia...finally, however, a couple of weeks wait, my beautiful wearable art arrives. I couldn't have been happier..I adore my scarf! So much so I've purchased six others and commissioned and gifted one other. Each scarf has it's own delightful character and colour. They'll eventually, in time, be passed on to my family as heirloom quality art. I consider Stefania a delightful friend. We Instagram chat most days. A fellow artist, I highly commend.

I’m not exactly sure how I found Stefania on Instagram but, wonderfully, I did! Her artwork is sophisticated whimsy at its finest. She is a true artist in spirit, skill and accomplishment and she never ceases to amaze with all the directions her art takes her. We love our two Stefania ladies (plus a black and white ink sketch… and a scarf). Though somewhat of a minimalist, I framed the ladies together in an ornate pink frame…and it sings to me! Though we are from different countries, I hope to meet Stefania sometime. Could happen! Last year, I was lucky enough to meet an Instagram artist from Copenhagen whose work I had admired and purchased. IG, at its best, can connect and expand our creative spheres. Grazie, Stefania. Keep those creative juices flowing!

Stefania Morgante, is an artist I have purchased several works from. Her body of work is large, and multi faceted. Wonderful scarves, badges, paintings...the list goes on. No doubt, an extremely talented and versatile artist. My purchases have arrived very quickly, and are well packaged. I would recommend her wonderful work to anyone, and will be buying again soon.
