“Fascinated by the title of the exhibit Lost in translation, and even with movement of emotions I rethink my experiences at Domus Academy. Fascinated because I grew up on the line of the unstable encounter of two different cultures and languages, southern and northern. I have lived and I have experienced so many times the process of loosing and as many times the enrichment that comes on the path of a project. I am moved by the encounter of new people and realities and above all a new dimension in the design thinking that occurred there. Everything was originated there at Domus Academy, the pain, the joy and sometimes (rarely) the enlightment and, I wasn’t ready for this, the internal transformation of facing and looking at the project, the other one and the world. In reality I think that the enjoyment of the designer is the path between the idea to the final product.”
