Project: Rocks & Fortresses: The Sailor

Festival of Mediterranean Citizens, Catania, Sicily

2 to 5 June 2022

Two Mediterranean journeys: one by land and one by sea.

A woman dedicates her life  to walk its coastlines and confront every castle and watchtower she finds. 

Beirut, Chania, Valletta, Almería. 

The longer she studies them, the more they change form, disintegrating before her eyes, returning to the rocks they came from. 

A woman sets sail  across the sea in  the hope of finding  her sailor. 

Cairo, Tripoli, Catania, Tangier. 

She checks every port, every ship. And yet her longing seems to surpass the quest for her lost love.
