THE BEGINNING

Our perception is served by the goggles we wear from the inside. Whether we are aware of how they shape our viewing, and why not, feeling of the world, is a question to be discussed.

There are times when you just cannot see: a comfortable darkness dressed like a fairy. It flies in front of you, dazzling your senses and shining your way, but once the enchantment is over, reality is revealed in a dim light. You keep looking for the fairy to keep your heart warm and you realize it to be a demanding task. The self dives in search for the light as an effort to reproduce the one once seen. There are times when you discover yourself to be as gloomy as life but you keep glimpsing at it until something glows again, a bug, a traffic light, a candle that lits a memory and finally fires your soul.

The Hug Project rises from my most innate feeling of investigation towards human consciousness:  is it possible to gather as one after all? What keeps me apart from you, from nature, from myself? Isn't it time to start banning humankind's so many wounds? A collective challenge of producing a healing act. Questions are thrown and your pondering becomes my work of art. Exchange your most sincere thoughts for a visual surprise. Are you up for a journey into becoming the protagonist of a life-changing experience?

Experiment with me. Teach me your gaze. Transform with me.
