La Marcolfa e le erbe miracolose (Marcolfa and the miraculous herbs)

Marcolfa comes from ancestral places. She expresses our ancient and deep contact with the earth and the natural forces. Her eyes are magnetic and her ways...extravagant. Marcolfa tells of herbs, legends, and long lost practices. Each plant has a story, a fragrance, some secrets to reveal. Her recipes are provoking, absurd, comic. Are they just stories and intriguing scams, or real wise healing remedies? Evocation is strong and everything runs on the edge between fiction and reality, between legend and actuality. Her strength is due to her being very theatrical and by the delirious and comic talk with which she relates to the public. Her cart, its goods, the scent of herbs and oils make her strikingly spectacular. Marcolfa is a character inspired by ancient traditions and popular beliefs.
