about
Stefano Venezia, tecnico del pensiero | thought engineer
tratteggio e rinnovo il mio pensiero, condividendo azioni che vogliono valorizzare le relazioni | I delineate and renewal my thought, sharing the actions that wants emphasize relations
Venezia è a Cuneo, è fugace, è un ipotesi di viaggio, è un dialogo tra opposti, è un’alternanza di paesaggi intesi come relazioni con il mondo, rispecchia i miei cambiamenti quando supero incertezze e mi rinnovo | Venezia is in Cuneo, it’s fleeting, it’s a guess of journey, it’s a dialog between opposites, it’s a succession of landscapes as like as relationships with the world, it reflects my changes when I outdoing uncertainty and reinvent myself
Libertà Non riesco a stare fermo. Innanzitutto provvedo a memorizzare le idee, quindi vivo per realizzarle. Credo nella volontà e nella possibilità. Ne deriva così una ricerca, meccanismo di libertà | Freedom I cannot sit still. First of all, I will memorize the ideas, so I live to realize them. I believe in will and possibility. The result is a research, a mechanism of freedom
Entità Ogni azione e lavoro che propongo sono il distillato di un progetto articolato per trovare soddisfazione nella tensione del movimento e del confronto, così come io sono parte naturale di un progetto universale. Opero per dare spazio al dialogo fino a quando, seppure per un fragile istante, affiorerà una minuta verità: essenza che sarà imperfetta ma autentica | Entity Every action and work I propose are the distillate of an articulated project to find satisfaction by power of movement and debate, as such as I’m a natural part of an universal project. I work to give space to dialogue until, even if for a fragile moment, a minute truth will emerge: essence that will be imperfect but authentic
