An extraordinary intense testimony of outsider art in the delicate sculptures made of recycled paper during the last phase of her life by Annamaria Tosini (Palermo, 1930-2013), a lady of brilliant past and creator of gardens, forced by a reversal of fortune to live 'exiled from society' in a care facility.
Refined works in which the artist gives life to her memories and images generated by listening to music, seeking salvation from her predicament in art. Gardens of the mind and flowery fantasies of intimacy often accompanied by texts that clarify their narrative and memorial function.

Annamaria Tosini. Gardens and Paper Sculptures opens the "Margivaganti" series curated by Eva di Stefano and devoted to outsider creators and their works. A series of publications, characterized by an original layout, highlights extra-ordinary characters and their creations. In each volume a rich mix of text and images depicts an intense portrait of irregular people that have found, in the most unusual and amazing art forms, an escape from their difficult lives.
