The title of this work comes from Japanese and is a word that does not have a literal translation, but refers to "the energy and desire to do mixed with the fear of making mistakes and the impatient curiosity to understand" typical of when we start to learn something new. The artist was inspired by her personal experience and by a melody in particular, the song "You were a child" by Giovanni Allevi. Retracing her memories, Rabarama deals with a personal and universal theme: as children we develop our personal maps, the cognitive and the emotional ones, which in the future will help us understand the world around us. However, it happens that negative moments affect these structures, which will leave open "wounds" in us, not allowing us to reach full awareness of our being, balance and serenity. In addition to these, the genetic map is part of us, represented in the work by the hexagons and lines that run through it, and which in its own way creates constructs and barriers to be overcome. The reflective pose refers to the moment in which, once we have found the courage, we face our traumas, in order to be free, serene and in balance, able to emanate our inner light and get in touch with the energy of the Universe.
