Fear… maybe the most intense human emotion! Unable to leave with the unexplained, man had to create a supernatural force, similar to the one that was frightening him. Strange singing, sinister and mysterious rituals, magic words and witchcraft were invented, in order to invocate those forces.
The mirror in which I’ve seen myself grow up… shattered, drives us to a maze of fragmented memories that inhabit the deepness of the unconscious. In a quiet scream of a human, lives the desire to go to another world. A world of colour, imagination and fantasy, in which dream and reality merge and break apart.
