The Aquarium in Pediatrics - part 2

Artist Silvio Irilli with Dr. Alberto Gaiero Director of the S.C. Pediatrics and Neonatology and Dr. Patrizia Marenco

Ready to sotenere the decorations of the second part of the ‘Aquarium for Pediatrics project, signed by “Painted Hospitals”?

The first part regarding the large walls, was realized thanks to the third place northwest area prize of the competition organized in 2019 by UNICREDIT FOUNDATION; the project, drafted by Dr. Patrizia Marenco and Dr. Alberto Gaiero Director of the S.C. Pediatrics and Neonatology, was contributed by theCresc.i Association, which has always been a partnership of Pediatrics for its care and training initiatives and supporter of numerous projects for reception.

Now we would like to complete the work with a beautiful floor that will become the seabed on which the children will walk, and there will be a table in the shape of a Sailing Ship where workshops can be done.

It will be the completion of the toy library, a unique work where , for the first time in Italy, Painted Hospitals will create a set design under the artistic direction of SILVIO IRILLI

“Painted Hospitals” is an art project created by artist SILVIO IRILLI that is transforming the wards of Italian hospitals, followed by millions of people on social media and is continually in demand in the health care places of cities from north to south including islands; it is among the most beautiful Italian realities in the field, also recognized by President of the Republic Sergio Mattarella.

Support us to create a pediatric ward with a special emotional and welcoming pathway.

Your donation will be the most important signature.

Thank you!!!

PART 2: THIS IS HOW IT WILL BE COMPLETED

Glossy resin-coated seabed floor

Table in the shape of a sailing ship

6 chairs

Printing of the coat of arms of the city of Savona on the sail

“Everyone’s hope is that as soon as possible we can return to normalcy and welcome children to our ward without the need for protection; this is precisely where the Painted Hospitals project for Savona pediatrics fits in.

The idea started from an intuition of the previous Coordinator, Dr. Marenco, which was immediately picked up by myself ; we then submitted the project to a Unicredit Foundation competition and that project won an award that allowed work to begin, with the valuable partnership of the Cresci Association. Thus began the renovation of our reception/playroom and representing the first impact in the ward; a colorful underwater world with a galleon in the center of the room will be our new reception room for inpatients, patients accessing our outpatient clinics and our day hospital

For the second phase of the work, for which this fundraiser is starting, we are supported by the efforts of the Golden Cross of Albissola Marina to whom our thanks go, associated with thanks to those who made it possible to start the work.

For ASL2 pediatrics and for the city, I think this is a really important project, and in some ways it also means that we can see with a little bit of optimism what will be our future and the future of our patients

Dr. Alberto Gaiero ( Director SC Pediatrics and Neonatology ASL2 )

FIRST PART COMPLETED

IT'S NOT JUST A DECORATION

Decorating a hospital ward is more than just beautifying a room with pictures. It means bringing a message of welcome, of support to the doctors who have to follow the patient and accompany him or her for treatment. Above all, it means giving some relief to patients who face a journey where courage and dignity are needed. It becomes even more important when the therapy has to be faced by children, who are by necessity in a context that is out of their World. It is important to recreate their World in a hospital ward, allowing them to continue to dream. That’s why every work we create must interact with children, telling them a story so that their therapy journey becomes a game. For adults, on the other hand, the settings, are about enhancing the area, which is so rich in history and can take them into another dimension.
