I was just above the train station, to that tiny panoramic plaza, when an entire canyon that is conquered by a light, transparent and minimal wave structure attracted my attention… was that the moment that I decided to take that adventure.
Step after step, after crossing the train station the structure rose in front of me… nothing was touching the existing natural organic wall, but instead looked like it was protecting and preserving it.
I had two possibilities to undergo through that path, to enter inside a “transparent tunnel”, or even take the straight one on the outer part of the “wave”. Unconsciously I entered the tunnel.
First to notice was that the tunnel was really protecting something, the roots from where all that vegetation was growing. Two steps forward something strange happened. Light started to draw the stripes and intensified while getting closer to something hidden behind the wall. In that moment space exploded and I was in the middle of a Vertical Theatric Stage. That space installation was located in a former Nichie area. That experience brought me to a memory, a CUNTI of Paladini Spectacolo, but actors were acting like puppets.
Getting further the intensity of the sea sound was growing higher, I fasten my steps, and reached an echo amplifier, a real tunnel, a under passage that cuts the wall and reaches the sea side, a way out that canyon. I feel that the end of my journey is close; the final stop is the demolished house where the Traditional Food Fair is located. The smell was driving me toward my favorite food delicacy.
My senses were all activated and in the end, what was left from that quick journey was the felling of a Dream…
