“Nascita di Venere..1484 è 2018”, cm 9,5×25,5 was painted by Laura Cristin in February 2018 on a little board – rescued from the wood-shed – that had served to test the marine colours (in the Nineties) for bigger paintings. The self-portrait on the left is taken from a photo of the performance “Healing in London” at the Kingsley Hall (September 2017) set in the atmosphere of the birth of Venus painted by Botticelli in 1484.
Venerdì 3 agosto 2018, parteciperò alla Notte Bianca (7 pm – 2 am) della Synesthesia di Mondolfo (PU) ricreando un a-mare partecipativo, un open space dove navigare nelle possibilità (e insidie) dell’AMOre. Col calar del sole prenderà corpo e vita la presenza/installazione fluttuante e collaborativa di Sheren. Si potrà contribuire all’in/canto agitando ad esempio bustine di zucchero come bastoni della pioggia, bagnandosi i piedi, con/dividendo qualcosa di Sirenesco o in altri modi sensibili di libera immaginazione. Aiuterà a tratti, SherenaDa (in mp3) di Dario Della Rossa e altre sue musiche sulle stesse lunghezze d’onda.

Nel 2018 ricorrono molti anniversari come i quarant’anni dalla legge Basaglia (legge 180, maggio 1978) e dal mio matrimonio (febbraio 1978). È anche il cinquantesimo dal 1968, nonché del mitico viaggio a Roma con la psicologa Letizia Comba (gennaio 1968). Nel corso del mese di giugno, altre innumerevoli e inaspettate coincidenze si sono intrecciate intorno al mio compleanno. Le foto e la didascalia della cartolina rivelano qualcosa di più, fermo restanno che le immagini più belle sono sempre quelle che rimangono nel cuore.
