No Man’s Land 2022


I woke up early that day. I was restless, thinking that I was going to see a new and different place.

It was a black sandy beach and its sea looked greyish. It was there in front of my eyes. An external space that represented the darkness I had felt for so long. 

In no man’s land, the strength and power of nature made me feel small and insignificant. And as strange as it sounds, I was relieved by the experience. The connection was immediate, my heart was racing, my body took over the territory and melted into it. 

Without quite understanding how, the landscape had freed me from being in pause. Have you ever f elt like this? Blocked, in pause, as if you were stuck in a well without being able to get out. As if you were inside a black hole. 

This time that feeling was there, outside, in the volcanic sand, in a forbidden sea.
Then, with the fragility of my body and its latent need for existence I asked myself: What is the reason I am in this world?
