“Here you can see Italy really well. What you have discovered is that Italy is an extension of Palermo using identical resources. You have discovered, he says, that Palermo is Italy.”
A country that defies comprehension – this is how Italy appears today. Giorgio Vasta rises to the challenge, borrowing from geology the tricky technique of core sampling – extracting a specimen from the earth and studying it to extend the results across a broader spectrum.
