I save my Sky... And you, your Land?

Davide Tirelli was born in 1967. He lives and works between Milan and Cannes. He has displayed his works in several group and personal exhibitions in Europe and the United States. His works are among those in a number of contemporary art collections, both private and public. He says: “I want to give not new things, but new eyes to see new things”.

The Bonelli eagle is at risk of vanishing from that portion of the biosphere that has determined and enabled Life since remotest times. It takes off from the fortress, symbol of culture, protection, exchanges… To save its sky, it looks at you and asks you: what are you doing for your ecosystem? To testify to Life, we have covered the fortress in bituminous sand (a Sumerian practice), placing it on a special beach, so as to "connect" these elements to the eagle through the fragments of very old newspapers that cover the stem narrating the thoughts and technological progress of Man who, endowed with intelligence by Nature, should show his gratitude through his behaviour.
