Quietness (Arte en el Origen 2019)

As in a fantastic tale, dreams and old memories capture me. Mystery.

The wind, the sea, the bitter aromas turning around endlessly. I run, I give out my fears, I drown, I breath deeply and start once again.

In an unconsciously performance, I try to play, I need to listen to the quietness, feel it's vibrations so that I can vibrate too.

I stop and breath yet again. I am now able to play once more.
