Venice is water and sky, but also land that was torn away from salted waters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this reason, an artwork for the airport is not only a bright contrail but also a blade that cuts, traces, affects the air as a plow would do with a clump of land, in a semantic context between over and under, solid, liquid and gas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, the achievements of the wild workers come from earth and water, evoking from the words of Pope John XXII \u2013 so that the glory of San Marco and Italy\u2019s banners could be renewed on the roads of the skies. \u2013 Such workers have offered their fatigue for the creation of a better future, and have bet on a vision that will let them fly and break free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sculpted material needs to be able to represent and illuminate their ideal of progress. In this case, it reflects and multiplies the effects of light as it would multiply the strength of laborious hands with the power of steel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without forgetting what the genius Leonardo taught us \u2013 flying is not only vibration, lightness and tension; it is also a change of space, thus being exactly what the sculpture is while affecting the atmosphere\u2019s density.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
