notes: vuoto 2 is the second piece in a series I began in 2024. The project explores the idea of emptiness — not as a literal void or simple absence, but as a broader metaphor for loss: the disappearance of something tangible or intangible, the residual trace of what once existed, or the emotional gaps left behind. In this sense, emptiness is not a passive state but a creative, dynamic force, one that shapes how we perceive space and time.
