Abisso, Alessio Pellicoro

'Abisso is a place whose margin cannot be known, where the light does not penetrate because it is filtered, or perhaps deliberately rejected. It is a place where the sense of space and time is lost, where the conscience wavers trying to extricate itself in a thick and dense substance, it yields… but does not fall. The sensation of sinking into the depths of the sea, perhaps the illusion of wanting to reach a nucleus of awareness, is a path studded with difficulties that creates stratifications in the consciousness, and this is where the reversal arrives: we perceive the possibility of escaping from it. This abyss is shiny, dyed, comes alive and shines at my unusual passage. It reveals itself, and I reveal myself to it.

The coastal coast of Salento is the protagonist of a nocturnal and dark journey within an imaginary perimeter that undergoes a surreal metamorphosis. It is the place that divides the sea from the mainland and hides its own universe made up of planets and stars'.
