The nostalgia that transpires from this work is more than just the nostalgia for the summers that the artist spent in Puglia, in the house of his grandmother.
It is a nostalgia for an epoch, for a past culture. It shows a renovated apartment in an old building: the new but already outdated kitchen made of laminated wood, people that put a sheet over the furniture and left, never to come back. Even the artist did not come back to make what seems to be a photograph. He reconstructed everything from memory using rendering software.
The drawing/photograph shows the demise of modernity, in which it was still thought that a ventilator could fight the heat that each summer became hotter and made the place eventually uninhabitable.
