The proposed reflections are based on the awareness of ‘being water’ and the consequences that this entails. The grapheme Æ in the title links the two words ‘absence’ and ‘essence’, both representing the concepts used here to observe a reality informed by water: the works created by Antonio Presti for the Fiumara d’Arte in Sicily. Absence as action, creation and wait; and essence as travel, catharsis and rebirth. The importance of ‘being water’ is explained by the water paradox of which essence is shown by the encounter between art and nature, and even its absence.
Le riflessioni che si propongono si fondano sulla consapevolezza di ‘essere acqua’ e sulle conseguenze che questa comporta. Il grafema Æ del titolo lega insieme le due parole assenza ed essenza che rappresentano i concetti qui usati per osservare una realtà informata all’acqua: le opere realizzate da Antonio Presti per la Fiumara d’Arte in Sicilia. Assenza come azione, creazione e attesa ed essenza come viaggio, catarsi e rinascita. L’importanza di riconoscere la rilevanza di ‘essere acqua’ è conferita dal paradosso di un’acqua la cui essenza si manifesta, nell’incontro tra arte e natura, anche in sua assenza.

Abstract
The proposed reflections are based on the awareness of ‘being water’ and the consequences that this entails. The grapheme Æ in the title links the two words ‘absence’ and ‘essence’, both representing the concepts used here to observe a reality informed by water: the works created by Antonio Presti for the Fiumara d’Arte in Sicily. Absence as action, creation and wait; and essence as travel, catharsis and rebirth. The importance of ‘being water’ is explained by the water paradox of which essence is shown by the encounter between art and nature, and even its absence.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
