What will you remember?
The answer is very clear to me.
I will remember the sense of frustration I felt during the lockdown, which derived from a very specific issue: the process of knowledge I had always lived in was hindered, blocked, severely limited. This process is not only an individual and subjective mechanism, or a personal practice, but a desire linked to the encounter with the other, the possibility to travel, move and get to know new things through exchange, interaction, meeting and gathering with other people… this side of our life was completely paralysed during the lockdown. All of a sudden, we found ourselves isolated in our homes, and this aspect obviously caused me great frustration, but it also led me to reflect intensely on our most precious asset: freedom.
The freedom to communicate with others, of expression, to move, to meet other people, to travel; to activate our human and intellectual process of knowledge through travels and encounters. I will remember this frustration, which I felt having my freedom taken away, and also having my freedom to meet and communicate with others inhibited. I will therefore remember this human and intellectual condition, and the fact that we always have to think of freedom as one of our most precious assets. We must look after it.
