This project was born from an error, a mistake in the interpretation of the etymology of the word "Museum". While drawing for an exhibition in Rome, I observed Rome as a great museum. I was misled by the term starting from the assumption that the origin of this word came from Moses, only to discover the correct Greek derivation and its meaning. This error was the intuition that led me to my research process in a series of original interpretative ideas that have connected territories, religions and symbols opening up a narrative made up of seven levels, each crossed by a light: that of knowledge.
