WILDNESS
Daniele Girardi First Gallery, Rome
Opening May 13, 2009 at 7pm
Wildness: a state of nature, ferocity, fierceness, furiousness, fury, vehemence; the property of being
wild or turbulent; abandonment; a feeling of extreme emotional intensity (Oxford Dictionary)
Wildness is a state of nature that becomes “natural” in a wider sense, and that permeates the
individual with that same emotional intensity which traverses space, rendering him an entity of
perception as well as a physical and mental one. It is a concretely symbolic place in which extreme
and absolute conditions, and contrasting, characterial, behavioural and emotional values arise,
transforming the atmosphere of the natural state of being human, of looking at the world, embracing it, absorbing it, changing it, distorting and poeticizing it. (photo gallery at ...)
