Comments

The crenellated walls seen from the inside, towers and emerging walls, form the cross-section of a room and symbolize the assiduous and jealous protection of every negative event, of an ancient olive tree, but still capable of new fruits and new life; the latter has its roots in a freshly plowed field; together they represent the natural means of sustenance of the <<public thing>> which is also <<private>>. It is tradition, strength of the past and present, hope for the future. The plastic innovation lies in the metamorphosis of the walls into a room: therefore protection of man, of the individual, from any negative external event.
