After a process of many weeks of gathering, discussing and contemplating evidence, symbols of cities, etc, we have arrived at a discussion of a concept which leads us to the inevitable connection between man and nature, and we have decided to call the new painting "Encounters".

It's been more than 6 weeks at and it's a pleasure to teach more than 50 participants ("World House", "Mediterranean Project", Quarto Anno and Rondine staff) the illuminated technique.🥰

We also guide participants in non-oppositional thinking and non-violent communication and, in doing so, acknowledge, discuss, and mark memories of love and pain from the past, deeply enjoying what freedom offers and making inter-ethnic reconciliation work effectively as they envision the country's future together. 🤩
