An arrhythmic succession of interrupted pauses
Matching silence with rationality, color with too long shadows, contradicting the laws of perspective by going beyond reality.
Waking up in a remote village in the middle of a flat plain.
Asking oneself if in that place people’s lives flow as elsewhere on earth or if here time follows a measure unknown to us: a dilated measure, irregularly divided into unequal fractions that never repeat themselves. An arrhythmic succession of interrupted pauses.
Walking along streets that indicate temporary paths waiting for non-existent goals, changing and deceptive lights in search of something that has been in us for an ancient time.
Classic shapes are transformed into masses of calm colors, which stretch, low and immovable, along a false horizon that dies moment by moment.
