Grindelwald Forest / Switzerland

«How to create interest? Create a transparency, a veil, an optical impediment, and the irresistible human curiosity will lead us to discover its mystery.»
Gabriele Meneguzzi

— A primitive story suggested our mind: daily water supply of Neanderthals and subsequent return to his cave. At first it was created the perspective depth of the path by varying the sizes of footprints left by man; so we came up with a sort of transparent shed, like a veil
of hat, that obstructed the view of the opera and oblige viewers to stop and to stoop to enjoy the dynamism of «walk» in its entirety.
