During the artistic residency Riabitare con l’Arte in the Municipality of Fossa (AQ) in the summer of 2021 I visited many villages in the seismic crater of L’Aquila, documenting the places twelve years after the devastating earthquake of 2009. Evident signs of the state of reconstruction of the historic centres in the seismic crater area are the fountains in the squares.
Where water flows, life flows. Where life flows, encounters take place. Where encounters take place, future becomes reality.
Everyone should have a fountain.
