The purpose of this work is to discuss not only basketball but the man, his emotional organization. For example, we would like to point out that our intimate and relationship experiences happen one step at a time. It is possible for them to blend together, but we cannot experience them at the same time.
The title of the project - 'ProjectCourt' - indicates a seemingly obvious fact. But considering obvious what links the rise of emotions and feelings to basketball is the result of living out of habit, in a distracted and bored way, the extraordinary existential that surrounds us and pervades us when we are on the court. Playing the Game leads to an intimate connection through 'sympathy'. No words are needed to give rise to feelings, moods, emotional experiences, particular and special sensations, unique sensations.
In this experiential exhibition, there are different listening stations that overlook photos that were brought to life by the photographer. The installation is a strong expressive-conceptual stimulus that can be experienced through the eyes and ears. To complete this space dedicated to all basketball fans, there is a 'remark' that materializes, in a symbolic way, the 'moment' presented through the photo.Works that engage the audience through sound (MP3 player and headphones), lights, scents, and the liveliness of the mind. A sound that is deep and constant pervades the environment, resulting in a climate of meditation and anticipation. Logical visual and auditory sequences, the outcome of thirty years of research in communication and experience on the basketball court. Words and phrases that are capable of creating in the reader, image-thought or emotive images.

Stimulating a flow of sensations and reflections.
We believe it is the duty of the creative person, especially those who love basketball, to promote awareness and try to reopen the door towards that inner void, which is increasingly present in a sport reduced to a numerical value, from which is once again possible to listen and listen to oneself. Is once again possible to return to the hidden value of when the basket ball rolled in the lives of guys with all its bounces, making the basketball intimate, real, and at the same time suggestive of an ineffable distance.
THAT 'CANVAS' THAT BRINGS TO LIFE THE EMOTIONAL COLORS OF BASKETBALL
The basketball process can be observed as if one were observing a canvas of a picture that has not yet been painted. When someone observes a painted picture, they don't pay attention to the canvas's texture, but rather to its shapes, colors, and perspectives. The painter's awesomeness of color combinations and formalities, as well as the visual story that permeates the painting, intrigue him. Any vision without support, not only the canvas, even if it were air, would be impossible.
The goal of the project is to make the concept of Sport/Basketball more clear to the visitor ...
... as a source of nourishment for the development of a distinct inner awareness in a person. (A book in progress)
In adulthood, the more you attempt to observe, the less you perceive. The more you listen, often distracted, the less you hear. In the period of innocence, everything is heard, yet very little is listened to. Everything is seen, but little is observed. The wonder in man's existence, as I have been given the opportunity to experience it so far, is that what is felt during the period of innocence and which, over time, ceases to be perceived in the forefront, condenses and cools until it becomes invisible to physical eyes, but perfectly perceptible with the emotional eye that has been forged over the years.
