What actually changes

We don't add information.
We change what you see.

  • A woman making orecchiette. Someone continuing a gesture handed down for generations.
  • A wall whitewashed with lime. Centuries of defense against the sun and disease.
  • A saint carried in procession. A city that still recognizes itself in him.
