Among Rabarama sculptures, Trans-lettera transforms the limits of language into living human expression.

Discover Trans-lettera: The Rabarama Sculpture That Speaks Beyond Words

Overlooking the bright waters of the Falcomatà seafront in Reggio Calabria, Trans-lettera stands as one of the most admired Rabarama sculptures. This bronze artwork, painted in striking shades of black and white, captures the deep relationship between communication and identity. Letters and symbols cover its human-like surface, reminding visitors that words can both connect and confine us.

Created by Italian artist Paola Epifani, known as Rabarama, Trans-lettera was installed in 2007 along the city’s famous promenade — often called “the most beautiful kilometer of Italy.” Since then, it has become a symbol of contemporary creativity on the Mediterranean coast. Each letter and curve seems to whisper untold stories, inviting everyone to explore the dialogue between art, silence, and emotion.

Moreover, Trans-lettera is part of a remarkable open-air collection that includes Labirintite and Co-stell-azione
