about

Making the invisible visible? Circumscribing the incorporeal ? Through the contemplation of sound, in sound. Are these sounds spiritual exercises? Are they perhaps prayers?

"What one cannot talk about, one can, and indeed must, sing and make music, if one cannot be silenced"

“Ad Invisibilia” seems to connect to the current of what we could define as “mystical minimalism”, of recordings released in Italy between the 70s and 80s, works such as “Motore Immobile” by Giusto Pio, “M.lle le Gladiator” by Franco Battiano, “Antico Adagio” by Lino Capra Vaccina or the very first compositions by Alvin Curran from the period in which he was close to Giacinto Scelsi.

“Ad Invisibilia” was composed and recorded in numerous villages across the expanse of Italy - (Rocca Malatina in the Apennine Mountains; Ostuni in the deep south, close to the sea; Traversella, Chiara and Fondo in Val Chiusella, a valley about 1,000 meters above sea level in the north-western Alps - between 2014 and 2020.
