MY HEART BELONGS TO THE OTHER
The other is a conversation with the land on the other side.
Land Madagascar.
Land not only perceived as a territory but also as an intrigue.
Rather a scenario named other.
A display around the desire towards the other, the vital dependence towards the other.
The other is a mystery yet the other attracts us
The other is intriguing yet the other inspires us
The other is a stranger yet the other calls out to us
The other is a geography and this land is calling us
The project itself is a metaphor
without giving the land its name
Thus the presence of the other, of others
The other of names full of symbols
To read, to quote, to dress and undress.
The other is a blind map drown in the darkness of our desires.
