"THE GODS KINGDOM UP THERE, BEYOND THE CLOUDS, WHERE THE WORLD OF MEN REACHES ITS LIMIT, THE MOUNTAIN RIPS THE SKY.
UP THERE, WHERE THE PATH IS LOST IN THE ROCK, AND THE MIST HIDES THE EDGE OF THE CLIFF, THE MIND IS CLOUDED.DO YOU HEAR IT? UP HERE, THE WIND WHIPS THE MEN WHO SEE THE MEANING OF THEIR EXISTENCE. DO YOU SEE IT? UP HERE, THE SUN BURNS THE EYES OF THOSE WHO WANTED TO SEE BEYOND THE HORIZON.
WOE TO THE ONE WHO FOUND THE BORDER OF GOD'S KINGDOM UP HERE AND NEVER WANTED TO RETURN AGAIN!"
Human beings have an irrepressible need to reach the impossible, climb to the top, and crown the highest peaks. Our ancestors saw in the mountains, where the rock rips the sky, the limit between their world and the world of their gods. There was a vital mystery, hidden by mist and snow, waiting for those daring who would venture to try to reach it.
This mystery is what drives me to create this series, portraying the personality of these mountains that, in other times, coined myths and legends that were the cradle of gods and demons and marked the lives of those who at some point contemplated them and dreamed of reaching them. That is why I decided to approach this photographic series in a monochrome way, like images of a dream, this distilling their purest essence.
