Mare Nostrum Expedition
Novaglass sustain the lonely expedition of The trip is published on his official website ...from Simone’s blog: “…only when you are come back home, only when the emotions are gone down, you can appreciate exactly what the journey has represented! During the trip you live the experience, you feel and collect emotions, and make them your. When it is finished you also need a period to permit your remembrances to fix themselves, and you mull over them. You fly with your head to keep them up and to taste them again too. The time gives your memories a different sort of flavour, I’m not talking about a better or worse taste but only about a different one: ripe, good, I give this mean to the past remembrances. . The right figure that can summaries this idea I think is a laden motorbike, a car with an heavy baggage on its top, many men moving forward in possession of them own goods, collected in makeshift suitcases and behind, a ship which has just disembark them on a new County’s dock. To everyone of them the fate has dedicated a different route and a different final destination. Swept away by the events, gone or oncoming, by the new words just learned making part of an unheard language and by the emotions engaged at the fact that you have to forget them early due to going to acquire the new ones of the new Country you have joined. Taking in you the remembrance of your friend let of in the other bank, and looking forward to the new people you have in face of you, trying to understand if they will be equally friendly. Wrapped in these worries, pervaded by these vibrations, sometimes we aren’t capable of live in the real time. Life is a route that must be fulfilled looking forward, but many times you can’t really understand it if you don’t turn back to see in the past. Different alphabets, sounds, colours and unknown languages echoed in your mind. Stones sculpted by the hand of the man and by the time, motionless trees since millenniums… Pace keepers and war’s men… Too much to report, too few words at disposal.”
