Ama is the first act of The World of Interiors, a video trilogy named after a famous magazine, that focuses on the house as the incubator of human relations and desires. It includes three pieces:
Ama, Limbo and Mindfield.

Vision is a fragment in movement, the bridge that connects a spectator with an action.
To look at something is to cross that bridge.
I came to Ama and the vision came true: a thick, fast, weft; natural and carnal fibres
entangled; earth, grass, motherhood; the body like a lawn.
A race from the lawn to the body. Actions are carved between mother and daughter: the video is a three-dimensional sculpture, the microscopic vision of a perennial gesture the gesture of generation, that reconnects man – woman – to nature.
