It is the memory of something that has never happened, yet we still feel it inside us. The traces of smell, texture, shape, shadow, hidden movements, other faces, and gazes – all these form the mystery of the forest, the trees, the plants, and the mystical creatures. We don’t see them, but we feel a connection and the presence of a parallel dimension. They invade us and transform us. They are watching us, but also protecting us. This is our home, the place where we belong.
The exhibition explores the other side of nature: its power and its care. It reminds us of something we have forgotten, bringing back the feeling of the land nurturing us.
