Per l'Australia/Passenger

Italian artist Alice Pasquini was commissioned by the Museo Italiano to paint a mural that tells a story of immigration and the opportunities it provides. It was a pleasure to watch this huge wall develop over seven days. A quote from the artist:     

"I believe that in our current time it is essential to remember that all we come from somewhere, it's important to draw a line through our ancestors. Almost everyone has a relative who was a passenger at least once in their lifetime. We must bear in mind the hardships faced by those who have migrated to a new destination, remembering that empathy, compassion, and knowledge are essential ingredients for growth of each one of us."
