The veil of the soul
Description of the work
Detail of the dress of a doll on display at the Museum of Dolls in Angera on Lake Maggiore.
I was on a visit to the Doll Museum;
among a myriad of dolls on display,
one in particular caught my attention.
This doll, called "La bambolaia",
he wore a skirt in jute fabric,
from which many little dolls' faces appeared.
At that moment I thought about the photo I wanted to do,
wanting to represent the last moments of our existence,
the spirit imprisoned by the sense of sin,
the mind that goes in search of memories
and a return to the infantile state.
In this last act, the veil rises
and leaves the spirit free from the sense of sin ....
