Iced Coffee // Frozen Pizza serves 17, michelin-star
courses, prepared by design students from the
University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. The gastronomic
experience includes dishes inspired by Architects,
Product Designers, Fashion Designers, a Graphic
Designer, a Landscape Architect, and a Retail
Merchandiser.
At the beginning of our program, we were all
virtually strangers. Upon arriving at the airport
for our twenty-four hour travel journey, many of
us were meeting for the first time, unsure of what to
expect and unsure of each other. Our study abroad
included an internship with the Italian design firm
Moncada Rangel, an image making course with James
Boyd-Brent, mural work with Carlo Alberto Giardina,
a build experience with Studio Gisto and Francesco
Faccin, and workshops with MADE Academy, directed by
Luca Andreoni and Roberto Clemente.
Working with Luca Andreoni, an Italian photographer
and teacher, our class photographed traces of
American culture that we found throughout Sicily.
Similarities were discovered within daily cultural
experiences, and similarities were also observed
on a personal level. Each project displays Italian
culture seen through the eyes of American students–
–a unique experience while coming out of a global
pandemic and travelling overseas to a new country.
Many Italian locals hadn’t seen or talked with
Americans for over a year, making the experience
that much more memorable. After eight weeks, we have
become regulars at local cafe’s, restaurants, bars,
and stores.
Iced Coffee // Frozen Pizza is a display of finding
traces of America in Italy, home in a new place.
Buon Appetito!

Iced Coffee // Frozen Pizza serve 17 corsi da
stella Michelin, preparati da studenti di design
dell’Università del Minnesota, Twin Cities. L’esperienza
gastronomica include piatti ispirati ad architetti,
product designer, fashion designer, un grafico, un
paesaggista e un commerciante al dettaglio.
All’inizio del nostro programma, eravamo tutti
praticamente degli estranei. All’arrivo all’aeroporto
per il nostro viaggio di 24 ore, molti di noi si sono
incontrati per la prima volta, insicuri su cosa
aspettarsi e insicuri l’uno dell’altro. Il nostro studio
all’estero ha incluso uno stage con lo studio
di design italiano Moncada Rangel, un corso di
creazione di immagini con James Boyd-Brent, lavori
murali con Carlo Alberto Giardina, un’esperienza
di costruzione con Studio Gisto e Francesco Faccin
e workshop con MADE Academy, diretto da Luca
Andreoni e Roberto Clemente.
Lavorando con Luca Andreoni, fotografo
e insegnante italiano, la nostra classe ha
fotografato tracce della cultura americana
che abbiamo trovato in tutta la Sicilia. Sono
state scoperte somiglianze all’interno delle
esperienze culturali quotidiane e sono state
osservate somiglianze anche a livello personale.
Ogni progetto mostra la cultura italiana vista
attraverso gli occhi degli studenti americani:
un’esperienza unica mentre si esce da una pandemia
globale e si viaggia all’estero in un nuovo paese.
Molti locali italiani non vedevano o parlavano
con gli americani da oltre un anno, rendendo
l’esperienza ancora più memorabile. Dopo otto
settimane, siamo diventati clienti abituali di caffè,
ristoranti, bar e negozi locali.
Iced Coffee // Frozen Pizza è una dimostrazione di
ricerca delle tracce dell’America in Italia, casa in un
posto nuovo.

A collection aiming to study and display
the traffic patterns in the city of Siracusa
at night. Capturing the experience of sitting
and watching traffic in a way that can be
relaxing. The curiosity that drives the mind to
wonder where each vehicle is heading.
Taken using long exposure photography,
the lights move in a blur. The vehicle
is not the subject, but it’s their direction and
journey that is a matter of attention.

Strays, pets

A Comparison is made between
the animals in Siricusa and Oritiga
and the animals in the U.S. Maybe
having to do with the pet culture in
both of these places, although it is
clear that Italy did not adopt a pet
culture from the U.S. It is possible
that the U.S. took inspiration from
Italy or Europe as a whole.

Strays, Pets and More...
All over Syracuse and Ortigia, Animals can
be seen wandering around freely. These pictures
show the examples of these animals.
This is an uncommon occurrence in the U.S.,
so this documents the examples in the span
of two months.

Strays, Pets and More...
There are a wide variety of animals
seen throughout Siricusa and Ortigia,
both domestic and stray.
8.6 €

A lot of the animals you see walking around are
well fed. Sometimes they belong to store owners.
In the U.S., as soon as people see a stray dog or
cat they usually call an animal rescue, especially
for dogs since they can be dangerous.

Cats also get called in to shelters, but they are not
usually threatening. There were a fair number of stray
cats around the city. Some of them are strays and
compared to the cats belonging to the store owners
are very thin and sometimes sickly.

being in italy for the postponed
2020 euros was a privilege
that we all got to experience.
as someone who has never
watched a game of soccer in
my life, i found the italians dedication
to their team similar
to my passion for my team at
home- the milwaukee bucks. it
was really easy to adapt to the
crazy environment for the euros,
especially as the bucks are
in the nba finals concurrently. i
got to channel my excitement
for my own team into the italian
national team. after feeling like
sicily is a different planet, this
weekly ritual of watching the
game with hoards of italians became
something familiar for me.

You hope that the struggles you experience in your home country don’t follow you when you
travel...
For me, my mental health struggles manifest themselves as messes that grow around my
living spaces, messes that oftentimes I feel like I have no control over. As I go through my
daily routines and carry out simple tasks such as doing the laundry and cooking, putting my
clothes back and cleaning the dishes become tasks that overwhelm me. By themselves, these
messes are small and rather insignificant, but as they accumulate they become
increasingly difficult to manage.
I took these photos to portray how the messes that grow in my mind as I struggle, are the
very reason why messes begin to appear in my daily life.

6The photos themselves depict the growth of the mess as things become
increasingly confusing in my mind. They show me placing things onto a
desk over time, using more and more objects before returning the others
to their designated places. In the end, this mess isn’t something I am
proud of. Nor is it something that I want to acknowledge. I think one
of the most difficult things to do is admit to yourself and to someone else
that you are struggling. To me, these messes make it obvious. It becomes
increasingly difficult when it becomes apparent that there is no escaping
these mental health issues. Despite choosing to turn my back on the
mess, one day I must face it.
