Imagine reading a story set in a world flooded with calm light, where time does not exist, there are no noises, only a light breeze. It is a day, or an evening, or a night, of immense tranquility. We have lost sight of the line that separates reality from imagination: everything is a fluid, communicating space. The only thing that interests us is to find out more about what we are contemplating …
We are faced with figures molded in the substance of which dreams are made: the creations of our Guest of Honor are rooms of wonders in which technical excellence becomes a tool to create a playful space for welcoming and exploring emotions, knowledge, imagination. A space in which the substance of the colors is imbued with a green water that gives off a particular light, a feeling of smoothness and harmony. A space to expand the reality of reading, reaching imagination as a cognitive and emotional act.
