Public toilet - Giardino delle Rose

The Matrinalia project transforms Florence’s public toilets into a unique urban art trail. 14 spaces, 30 artworks and 26 artists tell stories, figures and themes connected to women’s culture and memory through the languages of contemporary creativity.

Giardino delle Rose hosts two outdoor installations inspired by roses and poetry.

TomoZ transforms the letter “R” into a rose-shaped sculpture, reinterpreting the language of wildstyle writing and paying tribute to the garden’s collection of roses.

Francesco Terzago turns a children’s capsule-toy dispenser into an original poetry dispenser, offering short botanical poems as a poetic “rosary” to discover.
