The chapel is an “stanza incielata" built near the cave of St. Michael; is a space with a highly symbolic connotations, a place linked to religion, in biological symbiosis with the rocky walls of the cave, with the ancient chapel of St. Michael, with the oblique and powerful light of the path and with the prevailing silence sometimes broken by the dripping stalactites. The work focuses on questions relating to inhabit the landscape and dialogue among new, ancient and ancestral. The comparison is expressed by a two- dimensional dialectic according to which hierarchies are not assigned versus time - at the patina - but compared to the position of things in space.
