The Rabbit-Hole

... In another moment down went Alice after it, never once considering how in the world she was to get out again. ...

The downpour

From the window ....

Spring downpour

Half summer

A dense moist air surrounded me during the late afternoon...

Floating

I try to think, I try to work on a single idea...I read, I look for inspiration, ideas....but I just feel my boat is still floating right in the middle of the sea.

 

Reading

Pretending

When I was a little girl I used to cover my head with my grandmother's shawls. I was always pretending I had long hair, like the heroines of my favorite stories.

There are still a lot of them in my head.

Pretending

Dusty rain

A strange dusty rain was falling today...dirty drops on the deck.

Dirty drops

The blanket

Down by the Riverside motel,

It's 10 below and falling

By a 99 cent store she closed her eyes

And started swaying

But it's so hard to dance that way

When it's cold and there's no music

 

But, inside your head there's a record

That's playing....

Remeber me

I saw this movie, it was about this guy that was obsessed by the idea that if you pay enough attention to the world around you, it will definitely send you some fundamental signal to let you know the way to take. Once the movie was finished I remember that I wanted to have a look to the work of a photographer called Duane Michals.

The first thing I found was a short video where the photographer was writing a letter saying something like this:

"It is no accident that you are reading this. I am making black marks on white paper. This marks are my thoughts. And although I don't know who you're reading this now, in some way, the lines of our lives have intersected here on this white paper. ... These words have been waiting for you. This moment has being waiting for you. Remember me"

Remember me

Early in the morning

Just before the familiar noise starts.....



Morning light

Part II

I really liked that place...

Running

Afternoon at the lake

It is known that a lake is a place where strange things might occur, and strange people might live in or close by....

Rainfall

It always happens to me something marvellous after I have been moistened, accidentally or not, by the rain....

Dedicated to Gabriele.

Alda

Spazio spazio, io voglio, tanto spazio
per dolcissima muovermi ferita:
voglio spazio per cantare crescere
errare e saltare il fosso
della divina sapienza.
Spazio datemi spazio
ch'io lanci un urlo inumano,
quell'urlo di silenzio negli anni
che ho toccato con mano.

The wardrobe

I know who I was when I got up this morning, but I think I must have been changed several times since then.

The shawl

It was just for a minute....

Masao Yamamoto

Today I discovered an amazing photographer from Japan. His pictures are like short dreams.

His interview by Eva Rufo was so inspiring to me...he says he doesn't have a project or a precise idea in mind when he photographs, it is the photos themselves that tell him the story. There is no beginning,  not an end...it depends on where you start, a different story will  be revealed.

 



Cada cosa tiene su tamaño...

Happy to see him coming along the river bank.

The jump

Water lily

I was cycling when I saw them.
I saw those beautiful large flat leaves waving in the water as dancing mermaids.

O where are you going?
