La grazia e l'innocenza dei bambini trovano nella fantasia una felicissima occasione di manifestarsi. Il mio approccio col mondo infantile è materno. Mi soffermo a contemplare la natura, la più nascosta, la più umile, gli animaletti dalla terra, il profumo del biancospino. Tutto scorre in una festa di colore e di luce. In tutto questo ritrovo la delicatezza innocente dei giornalini della mia infanzia, delle rime improvvisate, la piacevolezza arguta di un'invenzione, il lepido saporoso scorrere di un mondo interiore.
