Program notes:

“Innumerevoli volte , Improvvisi Tracolli” is the image etched in the memory of a woman

contemplating the inexorable flow of time, a spectator observing from an outside

perspective the ephemeral nature of time and life.

A fleeting, unstoppable time, like a force that flows ceaselessly.

A time characterised by objects and figures that present themselves countless times, with

minimal variations and different points of observation.

A wish to capture each gesture, in its variations and in its collapses, as in a recorder in

which time can be stopped and brought back to memory in each instant.

​

Innumerevoli volte

ho guardato dalla finestra

ogni forma e ogni movimento

era miracolo nella retina

allargava il futuro esiguo

oltre la mia casa

​

oggetti della mia devozione

minime varianti e improvvisi tracolli

continuano la loro storia

conosco la gloria dei platani d’estate

e la loro invernale umiliazione
