Aliens in Milan . Pleiades M45 / UF #8

Un osservatorio all’aperto, nell’unico luogo rialzato della zona nord-ovest di Milano, in cui
fermarsi in cerca di un bagliore alieno nel cielo notturno. È un insieme di punti di aggregazione,
tracciati a terra riproponendo l’ammasso stellare delle Pleiadi nei sui elementi più rilevanti,
che permettono di sedersi o sdraiarsi per scrutare l’arrivo di forme di vita aliena. È una
performance che permette di unire, collaborare, meditare, osservare e stare in silenzio; È come
il passaggio di una cometa. Ci si prepara, la si vive, la si ricorda…
