Everything we have experienced is possible to measure. In a globalized world, it is related to the idea of recognizing and compressing ourselves for further expansion. Therefore, it is a critical moment, at the same time hopeful. What collapsed, what fell, condensed into social forces. From this point on, the possibility of growing and moving towards new spaces is reborn. It is like taking out the essence and recognizing it. There are no limits but only entrances, from infatuation to essence.
When we are able to perceive the transformation in our environment and in ourselves, we begin to look in depth, becoming aware of the relationships we establish with the world. We started to expand.
In TRACE I try to connect with my essence, find myself from another place, from the inside out and vice versa. It is trying to allow the natural flow of things and respect our essence. Rediscover the presence of ourselves in others. Latencies as engines of desires that leave traces in our existence.
It is at the same time trying to get out of the resistance to our time for a few moments, recognizing ourselves as present and multiple bodies.
We are one, we are multiple.
