Esistenza x Gioia

'Esistenza x Gioia' is inspired by the primal and uniting power of water. It celebrates our essence, the innate life force that's within and connecting all of us, healing and transforming.
It's a celebration of existence and the joy to be alive.

“This sky
Where we live
Is no place to lose your wings
So love, love
Love.”
― Hafez, The Gift
