Schools have been among the first institutions to adapt to the new measures of quarantine. What are the pros and cons of online classes?
For sure, the greatest pros are that I have flexible hours and all the comforts of being at home. Furthermore, I'm always on time for online classes! On the other hand, I miss the confrontation with my schoolmates and all the dynamics between students and professors. It is very hard to follow online some courses of design and 3D modeling! And Internet can be very slowly.
The Fashion and Design Industries have been aggressively afflicted by the COVID-19 emergency. As a consumer, but also as a future insider of those systems, what will be the worst consequences of this crisis?
The hardest damages will be economical. Made in Italy will be the most afflicted, from the gastronomic industry to the luxury economy.
Your work is built on creativity. Where do you find your inspiration in this moment?
In my honest opinion, creativity needs spontaneity and curiosity. The more you are curious, the more you discover new things. Everything is important to be inspired. Now that I'm not going out almost anymore, my inspirations come from the web, from books and photography. Being creative is something that you need to cultivate everyday and that must grow with passion.
