“’Flu水o’ is the perfect remedy against a hardened, Eurocentric vision of the world. It is a project that emphasises the need to ritualise the world in order to understand and transform it. ‘Flu水o’ as a place of reflection for an ailing world in need of a cure. It is incredible how art expressed through collective, inspired work contains within it the perfect terms for the construction of meaning. Art as a vehicle for collective resolution through the human in its essence as a cultural being and so as a simply human being. The artist as a human being in its essence of a reconciler.” — Davide Quadrio
