In this picture it can be observed how in the new research Vanni soon goes beyond the original structure suggested by the reflections on the sea to look for new relationships with the surrounding white. In this case the stratified structure is replaced by a centrifugal and centripetal upward movement that suggests the presence of internal currents that condition it. Vanni underlines the evocative potential of these convulsive forms with titles that, in addition to paying homage to the greekness that lies at the origin of this series, allude to ancestral presences of classical mythology.
