In the current work, the gesture is associated with a rare sensitivity to nature. color and reveals, on the stage of a splendidly illuminated ocean, the solar and vertical vocation that secretly unites the destinies of man and those of the Cosmos, the ultimate meaning of its aesthetics. World of shadows and a vibrant light, softly enchanted and mysterious, of a night that shares with it the magic and beauty of a wonderful land, holder of the mystery of its origin.
