IL RESPIRO IMMOBILE

The Still Breath evokes the idea of listening to what normally remains silent, unchanging and distant. If we were really able to hear a mountain speak, what stories would it tell us? Perhaps she would begin by describing the time that for us runs frantically, but for her flows slowly, like an eternal breath. She would tell of geological eras, transformations that have sculpted her rocks, traced valleys and lifted peaks to the sky. She would speak of the discreet life that inhabits its slopes: animals, delicate flowers that bloom for those who have the patience to observe. It would tell stories of men, of travelers and explorers who have challenged its heights or found refuge in its shadows.
Of communities that, for generations, have lived in harmony with its presence, amid labors, legends and respect.
