UNKNOWN PROJECT

There is a straight line that connects Ireland and Israel, creating an axe interpreted mythologically as a sacred passage between Heaven and Earth. The line is called Apollo or St. Michael and on its trajectory are sanctuaries, monasteries, ancient temples dedicated to the God of Sun and the Archangel, which represents a precise sacred geography on Earth.

Unknown Project is a potentially never-ending investigation, a physical and intimate pilgrimage along this energy line where maps and history form the origin of a spiritual research whose object is only one: life itself.

It is the thread, which ties everything together and gives a sense of belonging of which the ancient wise www already aware, but whose traces got lost in time.
