Hope is the last to die

We are moving. Uphill, rising, forward, still in place despite the efforts. In front of us there is something worth trying. Without surrender. Two videos run on the same screen side by side. The first is the shadow of the Mount Etna cable car continues to rise. The constant rhythm, the background changes but the shadow continues to rise as a glass on the details. In the second a woman running on the running machine in the gym. The face expression is if she's watching something"beyond". She's succeed with courage and knowledge. The sound is alternated. We move from amplified sound of the cable, rhythmic, slow, steady, to the sound of the music that she's hearing in the headphones. Changes by David Bowie. The friction created between the seriousness of the cable car sound rather dark and tied to the image of external nature, and the bit of Bowie tied to a more constructed and aseptic place, it is almost comical. By a side a way to resistance and by another side on the limit of a mad obsession.
