Il riflesso del cielo

Kei Nakamura

The idea is to leave a mark that creates a connection between heaven and earth. The artwork is made of triangular metallic elements and each of them gives life to reflections of light that ex-pand in various directions. The metal with its contrasting reflections becomes one with the surrounding nature.

Exhibit place Les Cialdires

There are hidden, isolated places where you can still come into contact with the forces and energy of nature, lifting an otherwise ordinary day, even if just for a few minutes. Myths and legends are often rooted in the vicinity of rivers and lakes, and not just in the Ladin valleys.  Here, where fresh water flows and constantly changes (a concept expressed in Greek with "panta rei"), fantastic figures still appear, such as enchanting women or ancient creatures – half woman, half goat – that are known in folk tradition as Anguanes. Anyone lucky enough to enjoy these mystical places today cannot fail to appreciate that there is an exciting world of wonder beyond the images fed to us by television and the internet.
