Performance-ritual (2024), Lac o Le Mon, S. Cesario di Lecce IT

During Aesthetics of the Non-Perceptible IX, led by Emilio Fantin, I proposed a collective performance intended to leave a lasting trace of our shared time and to prepare the space thoughtfully for the next guests of Lac o Le Mon.

Following some personal purificatory rituals, I invited everyone to scatter seeds, pour water, and walk gently within a circular groove I had carefully crafted beforehand.

These actions held both symbolic and literal significance. The time we spent together -blending art and life - was deeply meaningful to me. I had received much from this experience and wished to give back, not only through energy and presence but also by creating a circular patch of grass. This would be a space for artists to walk barefoot, fostering a gentle reconnection with Mother Earth.
