One step, one breath, a gaze of wonder.
The mountain heals me. I return home transformed, filled with gratitude and good intentions.
The work originates from the echo of those landscapes encountered along the path.
The process begins with the recovery of packaging boxes: anonymous cardboard destined for recycling. The panels are torn decisively, revealing the internal “soul” of the material — overlapping layers, differing in texture and tone.
It is precisely these revealed portions that suggest the compositional rhythm: a three-dimensional collage in which the textures shift with the changing light.
The act of recovery interrupts the usual recycling cycle, yet at the same time restores value to a very humble material — created to protect other things, now taking center stage. No added color. No final protective coating. The work remains fragile, alive, reintegrable into the cycle of reuse.
The four pieces can also be read in sequence. The first, a wide shot, offers an overall view; gradually the gaze draws closer, until it captures the detail: a wall marked by time, corroded, disintegrated.
The work takes shape as landscapes — or perhaps inner passages. An exploration of impermanence, of the slow and inexorable action of time, of the fragile balance between nature, matter, and memory.
