PU26: Il riposo che stavo aspettando / The Rest I Have Been Waiting For

From the Prometheus Series: “On Building the Noble Ruin — You can’t ruin a ruin. Nor can you fix it. Over the years, those old and damaged things that have taken on their unique patina of age and dirt. You can see the signs of structural failure and the wounds from incoming assaults. The lines and wrinkles, the threadbare fabrics, and the sagging skin. You can’t repair a ruin. You can remake it into your current imagination, but its very existence lies in the fact that it has fallen into disrepair. If you remake it, the ruin becomes something entirely new. The only hope for a ruin is that prior to its falling, it had nobility, a strength that remains past its downfall. Then the patina it acquires, and the wrinkles it presents will hold and accentuate that nobility. The weight and gravitas you built over a lifetime will hold you aloft.”
