The search for the self and the memories and emotions associated with it lead us through forgotten and dark places of an inner world. We move in an apparent interactivity, generated by the camera work, through spaces created from around one hundred fifty 3D scans, torn between curiosity and resistance.

La ricerca del sé, con ricordi ed emozioni ad essa associate, ci conduce attraverso luoghi dimenticati e oscuri di un mondo interiore. Ci muoviamo in un'apparente interattività, generata dal lavoro della telecamera, attraverso spazi creati da circa centocinquanta scansioni 3D, in bilico tra curiosità e resistenza.
