The term Poetics of Space intend to propose an alternative to the term land-art , which critics have applied to artistic works that, in the '60s we began to run in nature, forests, rivers, coastlines and so on. Together with my colleagues in the group OHO I worked hard in this movement, in the years 1969-71. For a long time I accepted the expression land-art , oggi affermata,nell’attesa che anche la critica internazionale, oltre che alle affermate idee su che cosa sia la land-art, aderisse anche all’alternativa della quale mi occupo.
Si tratta di un concetto, secondo cui la natura, lo spazio e il paesaggio di un territorio non sono solo un oggetto dell'espressione artistica, che sta a disposizione dell'ispirazione dell'artista o addirittura al suo capriccio.
Per me la Terra, la natura e lo spazio sono entità autonome, con cui è possibile comunicare e cooperare: hanno i propri tessuti bio-energetici, la propria intelligenza e his own being.
work with nature and space is, for me, the encounter of two subjects.
As an alternative to the use of artistic nature, in the meantime I have changed the landscape of the sculpture in a form of therapy. Work on the "healing of the Earth", in other words, the balance of the space of open countryside or the city. The art becomes a form of communication between nature and man and also the method with which to heal the wounds, that human civilization has inflicted on the area or region through his consciousness alienated or indifferent to the technology nature.
I then drafted the language of space letters, with which, according to the experiences I made, you can communicate with the intelligence of nature and also with the consciousness of the universe, which in Western culture is equated with the angelic world.
The space letters are a form of language of visual arts, pictograms of a kind that are shaped so as to pass a strong energy radiation. With this radiation, led by artistic figure, the perception is possible on other planes of existence, where the form of reality and the immaterial. In this way, the information encoded in cosmogram also comes within the reach of those levels of consciousness of the Earth who do not have physical eyes, but which are crucial for the quality of life of an area, open space or urban.
litopuntura also I have developed a kind of acupuncture on land. With the placement of "needles of stone" in certain parts of the territory, I try to get a similar effect to what can cause the needles of acupuncture, the healer who drive in certain sensitive areas of the human body. In the case of acupuncture 'territorial environment we do not use needles, but adequate stone columns for litopuntura. In the "equipment" that I adapted to the poetics of space, is part of geomancy, a form of knowledge that allows you to decode a territorial space in the multi-dimensionality of the layers that compose it. In the multi-dimensionality of space add to the geographic shape and biological spheres, the fabric-vital energy, or etheric, space, composed of force fields, energy flow and energy centers.
the multidimensional space of the landscape is the consciousness of the Earth and nature, which is extended throughout in space, in the form of many energy cells, which popular tradition known as elemental beings.
