The forms and responses we seek are there, waiting for us. My own values as a designer were confirmed by this: if one cultivates a condition of receptiveness, it easy to tune into the secrets of the world as they emerge from fire, from the wind, the stars. While travelling for the first time in India, I decided to try working in a new way as a designer, with an empty mind, free of preconceived ideas, allowing external forces to guide me to the heart of creativity and to provide the responses to the questions posed by making objects: why abd for whom? I imagined objects that could put human beings in contact with the divine, capable of recounting ancient stories. For us, ‘the great work’ can also be accomplished trough objects. We belong to a tribe that concerns itself with the transformation of energies. Our condition as designers is that of being in the world, totally. The discovery is made by way of symbols, which speak eloquently to the independent thinker. To possess it, on must reach the point of assimilating it spiritually, discovering it within oneself. The true secret remains forever incommunicable it cannot be borne on a whisper, from mouth to ear. The task of objects is to symbolically evoke lost messages. Ours is an age in which the tribes acknowledge each other, in order to reunite in ancient families. It goes without saying objects assume their own forms, by themselves, drawing from the infinitely profound territory of the collective unconscious.
