The inspiration for Cold Desert came from free diving, a practice that allows us to explore the depths of the ocean freely and without equipment. This connection with nature, with the feeling of being part of something bigger than ourselves, inspired me to create a piece that was a true dive into the essence of each person.
Cold Desert is holding your breath and listening to your heartbeat, it's feeling like you're part of something bigger that transcends everyday life. It's about stopping time, taking a deep look at ourselves, facing the abyss of our fears, and in the end, in the immensity of silence, accepting ourselves completely, because we are infinite beings.
