the middle of this installation (painting, photography, text) is the final stanza, the leave or leave of Song (Donna me please ...) by Guido Cavalcanti, a masterpiece of the thirteenth century, much admired in the twentieth century the American poet, Ezra Pound. The 'release' from the poet to his poetry, as describes the leave of Cavalcanti, Robert Neal has suggested to the flight of a bird singing. In contrast to this image of freedom is no barbed wire, a symbol of prigonia. Although this reference is not specific, it evokes the detention of Pound in 1945 by the American authorities in a 'cage' near Pisa.
