Demonia
Elisabetta Coraini
Original Poetic Verses by
Giuseppina Amodei
EuDemonia is an exploration of the demon imbedded in the feminine. By Demon I refer - Fabrizio Portalupi says - not to the negative and punitive connotations associated with the religious aspects of the word but rather with the intrinsic meaning with EUDEMONIA: happiness as man’s ultimate life confirming objective.

Perfectly conscious of the lure of her beauty, she uses it as a deadly weapon in the dance of seduction.
