STRETCH

.jpg)


this is the trace of space.
this is the structure of space.
it is a flat structure.
to you space, I tell you:
I've never seen you so tight as in the last few months,
You have never been so tight to me. Never.
never so far.
Never.
I took the distance and I lost the distance
from the world,
with the world.
from me
respect you
or respect me.
I have lost the Cartesian sense
a wave passed that moved it, changing the order of vectors
I go after that wave
together with the wave
I'm going out of you space, through you without touching you


The STRETCH installation was first presented at the Spazio E_EMME Gallery in Cagliari during the lockdown. The purpose behind the project originally was to make it visible from the outside, through a window, since people could not enter the gallery spaces during the pandemic.
The STRETCH installation has been presented at “Project and Destiny", the first Biennale of Ulassai, Sardinia, created to celebrate the deep connection between Maria Lai and the community of Ulassai. Maria Lai, one of the most influential artists of the 20th century, had a special relationship with her hometown of Ulassai. Her artistic vision, deeply rooted in local culture and traditions, inspired a cultural renaissance that continues to influence the community. The exhibition is curated by Gianni Murtas and the scientific committee composed of Chiara Manca, Damiano Rossi, Antonello Carboni.
