Exhibitions, Italy, Genoa, Lavagna, 05 August 2016
ELATE MEMORIES continues the thematic subject started with the previous exhibition FUTURE AND BEHIND where the certainty and the values of our past were set against the instability of a crumbling modern society characterised by the uncertainty due to the feebleness prospects of the future.
With ELATE MEMORIES we want to investigate the role that memory and remembrances have in being happy. Elate memories is an exhortation to search serenity within ourselves, in our experience and knowledge: cheer up, exult for the memories.
Amusement, joy, optimism and exultation are often connected to light heartedness, holidays, diversion in the search for newness, but equally we can find these mood feelings in the cultural heritage, in the traditions. The ephemeral present becomes immortal in the memento.
Our present condition is the result of our past, of all our life, of the best choices we could ever have made. To be here and now is by itself indeed the outcome of a past full of successes.
