The key words employed as a method in my work have been: mountain, rise, shape, rhythm; innovation, architecture, design; past, future, contemporary; nature. The narration of the artwork is defined both on the superior and the inferior plans: that is to say, I wanted to recreate the dynamism of the continuous ascent and descent, recreating some kind of movement of approach and method of the project (Sirok has worked on an inner ramp inside the Colonia: the ramp represent a sort of ascent, Ed.). Following the rhythm of the space I’ve seen the possibility of adding an artificial element (a voice), made out of shadows and reflections, which get integrated to the space, projecting symbolisms. My objective was to break the ice and the Mountain, in the two parts of a metaphor, contemporary and lyrical. So, climbing, climbing a new vision, with the goal of  enhancing its natural and architectural composition. The routine of the elements, in the conceptual dynamism, determine the method, and the colour, to execute the project and establish the title: thus the action of the  artwork is established on the elementary, base plane, but the content is trascendent.
