Rhaetia World
what dwells underground
Rhaetia is home to creepy and pouty creatures
they got lost and found shelter here
a place where they can be themselves.
It has no boundaries.
If you know where to find it, you are Rhaetian.
the art brand
Each region of Rhaetia has its own history, interwoven with unique traditions and customs: every arrival and departure always reaches the Visitor Centre, the only Rhaetian hospital in existence, also known by the creatures as the Rhaetia Hospital Municipality. The hospital welcomes all creatures that have been abandoned or are in need of protection.
The doctors and nurses of the Hospital Town Hall, for example, are called Privacy Hangers: powerful talismans in the form of creatures native to the world. Each plays a specific role in protection, healing and purification through musical collections inspired by their personalities.
It is a secret, vibrant world that, stretched across a cotton thread, unites the parts of the same organism.
Rhaetia's evergreen idea is to restore life and meaning to forgotten collectibles, such as soft toys, vintage dolls, fabrics and unused canvas bags.
Ethics and sustainability
♻ Second life (recycling): the soft toys and dolls are second-hand, carefully selected, restored and reinterpreted by Rhea Doll. The project does not aim at mass production, but at exhibiting unique pieces of art, which is why some items may show signs of wear and imperfections.
♥ Community: dedicated to creepy and moody creatures, Rhaetia welcomes people of all genders, ages, orientations, abilities, religions and ethnicities who identify with the concept of self-care through the aesthetics of creepy cute and poutycore, within the safe space offered by the project.
✚ Expression: Rhaetia is open to all forms of artistic expression, in line with its aesthetic vision. The aesthetics of creepycute and poutycore are not a limitation, but a filter through which to explore the beauty of the imperfect, the melancholic and the tenderly disturbing. Here, expression does not have to please or conform to the mainstream: experimentation, the contamination of languages and the freedom to be oneself, even in one's dark side, are encouraged.
Rhea Doll
The world of Rhaetia was discovered by Rhea Doll, a psychic with great sensory visions. In the earthly world, this figure is called an artist, the only difference being that in Rhaetia, psychics with great sensory visions are masters of immense regions and otherworldly realms, difficult to reach even with the use of magic.
Rhea Doll has travelled extensively across the earth, passing through secret portals in northern Europe and Japan.
When she is granted permission, she sets off on new adventures, exploring worlds that allow her to return to Rhaetia with delights and new spells tailored to its inhabitants.
