Stromberg

A wandering castle apparently unreachable from the sky-cities below, by now the idea of ​​reaching it has left the minds of the inhabitants of Nibelheim, yet someone still has the crazy idea of ​​crossing those skies.

a continuous race against time, towards what we can become, to a goal that is rumored to be unattainable, it is right that you'll reach for it? Are you enough? could you really succeed?

what stops us is the fear of falling, the feeling of not having ground under our feet,
without realizing that even the safest land floats in the void.

Oh great traveler, what you will find in Stromberg is not eternal peace but a new, greater reality.

I've always thought of the great cities as something fascinating, scary, and... far away,
away from my reality made of hills, woods and silence.

the choice was whether to get stuck in a place I didn't mind or throw myself into a completely new world.

I started from this thought and built this collage by recreating a city with a steampunk atmosphere.
I used parts from Post magazines, a japanese flyer, a CocaCola commercial and a photo i took, also for the mechanical parts
i took parts from a "cathedral", i've talked about them in this previous post:

the message I wanted to express is that in my opinion, in this world there are no heroes,
just normal people who for a period of their life, decide to stop listening to fears and simply risk all.
bet all the earthly things they've got to become something more.
