LA PRIMA DI OGNI VOLTA

La prima di ogni volta is a text that deals with sophisticated levity and playful composure topics of extreme conceptual significance and great emotional depth, which isn’t afraid to look straight in the face of existential issues such as freedom, responsibility – a notion closely linked to philosophy – the meaning of life, the value of time, and the absurd normality of death, described through the powerful and enchanting image of “stretched fibers, like cloth threads, which pull the others along”. (Arianna Fermani)
