Description:
Ideas are involved in a weird process that happens in our mind. Everything always starts with something like “oh, this is so silly!”, then we let them go and sometimes these “silly ideas” assume a real shape in the real world, without even realizing it. When we start to think about something we have a ruffled notion about that, just some hints in our head. But, when, exactly, an idea becomes a project? How can it be something concrete? I tried to visualize the “mental construct” behind an idea, casting three objects from the trash and then recreating them as candles, I’ve shaped in reality my concept of idea, which is basically something that burns and melts in something else.

le idee sono coinvolte in uno strano processo che accade nella nostra mente. Quando lasciamo andare queste strane intuizioni, senza rendercene conto, a volte, queste idee
apparentemente sciocche assumono una forma reale nel mondo reale. Ho provato a visualizzare la costruzione mentale che c’è dietro un’idea, provando a dare una forma che inevitabilmente si scioglie in qualcos’altro, calcando tre oggetti dalla spazzatura.
