“Light of thy countenance/continent”

[2016]

«These pictures refer mainly to a trip to Germany, one of the many centers in Europe. It is a kind of non - chronological calendar. The text reflects on the question posed by EUROPASS project: the face of Europe. Sound combines electronic music by AlessandroLoPresti - an artist who lives in Moscow, another center of Europe - with synchronized and asynchronous sounds of the environment. The result is to resemble a classic figure of a labyrinth, assuming there is one or many ways to get to the center where the prize is exit.»
