Places
A dreamlike journey both in real and invented places: moonrocks, prehistoric beaches, asteroids, volcanic craters. Discovering the universe in one apparently banal single corpus. Unknown worlds and elements still waiting for being explored, take possession of a component that is already living inside rocks and sands. Its mysterious solidity, both porous and dense, hides a very detailed and frail stratification, so that just even a light pressure can cut off little pieces, creating deep and unknown substrates.
Oh allora sballottati
come l'osso di seppia dalle ondate
svanire a poco a poco;
diventare
un albero rugoso od una pietra
levigata dal mare; nei colori
fondersi dei tramonti; sparir carne
per spicciare sorgente ebbra di sole,
dal sole divorata...
(Eugenio Montale, Ossi di seppia, 1925)
