Peruvian Blues

Se sai ascoltare impari.

Proverbio peruviano


Quando si immagina il Perù solitamente il pensiero va ai resti imponenti di Machu Picchu, alle colossali linee di Nazca o ai colori sgargianti delle Rainbow Mountain, ma sono in pochi quelli che pensano a Lima. La capitale del paese è un luogo dai forti contrasti, a tratti inclemente. Si tratta di uno di quei posti caratterizzati da differenze molto nette, dove i quartieri buoni sono murati e videosorvegliati, dove gli abitanti non camminano a piedi per le colossali  arterie che fanno pulsare il cuore della metropoli. Una città lambita dal deserto alle spalle e dall’oceano di fronte.

Io per sette giorni non sono stato un suo turista, ho vissuto come una persona qualunque con un lavoro qualunque. Non ho potuto apprezzare i grandi monumenti, godere del fasto dei quartieri coloniali, ma al contempo ho cercato di rubare sprazzi di bellezza sparsa, aguzzare la vista per trarre un minimo di suggestioni, qualcosa da portarmi dentro da questa esperienza.

Ci ho messo diversi mesi per lavorare alle fotografie fatte durante questo viaggio, per metabolizzare la diversità e la bellezza, per dare ordine ai ricordi e fermare le immagini. Il risultato sono pochi scatti che vogliono parlare di un passato e di una cultura, di un paese rivolto al futuro globalizzato e alla salvaguardia del suo patrimonio.

High by the flowers

Boy look at you looking at me
I know you know how I feel
Loving you is hard, being here is harder
You take the wheel
I don’t wanna do this anymore, it’s so surreal
I can’t survive if this is all that’s realAll I wanna do is get high by the beach
Get high by the beach get high
All I wanna do is get by by the beach
Get by baby, baby, bye bye
The truth is I never bought into your bullshit
When you would pay tribute to me
‘Cause I know that
All I wanted to do was get high by the beach
Get high baby, baby, bye byeBoy look at you looking at me
I know you don’t understand
You could be a bad motherfucker
But that don’t make you a man
Now you’re just another one of my problems
Because you got out of hand
We won’t survive we’re sinking into the sandAll I wanna do is get high by the beach
Get high by the beach get high
All I wanna do is get by by the beach
Get by baby, baby, bye bye
The truth is I never bought into your bullshit
When you would pay tribute to me
'Cause I know that
All I wanted to do was get high by the beach
Get high baby, baby, bye byeLights, camera, acción
I’ll do it on my own
Don’t need your money, money
To get me what I want
Lights, camera, acción
I’ll do it on my own
Don’t need your money, money
To get me what I wantAll I wanna do is get high by the beach
Get high by the beach, get high
All I wanna do is get by by the beach
Get by baby, baby, bye bye
The truth is I never bought into your bullshit
When you would pay tribute to me
'Cause I know that
All I wanted to do was get high by the beach
Get high baby, baby, bye byeHigh-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh
High-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh
High-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh
High-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh-igh-ighEveryone can start again
Not through love but through revenge
Through the fire, we’re born again
Peace by vengeance
Brings the end

High by the beach
