Mana
** 200 Copies ** St.an.da. presents Mana by Gianluca Becuzzi. "In anthropology, the concept of mana identifies a supernatural impersonal power. It manifests itself through men as power or superiority, bestowed upon them by spirits. Sound is the musician's magic gesture.

In this work, the search for a maximalist and minimalist form at the same time allowed me to make experience of…

The inspiration for this new course was given to Ripatti by a series of ventures into…
