SYNOPSIS
The film reconstructs with care and tactile and optical sensuality the path and legacy of a unique figure of woman and artist: from the turn of the sixties with the “Looms”, the “Sewn Canvas”, the “Breads”, the “Scriptures”, the collective action carried out with the citizens of Ulassai in 1981 (“Tying to the mountain”), which anticipates relational art, one of the main artistic currents of the late twentieth century, by a decade. The repertoire materials and landscapes integrate the chorus of testimonies from friends, collaborators, artists, and critics with the same mysterious serenity of the artist’s voice.
