"Water as a metaphor for movement and flow, but also an opportunity for action and reaction". This is the idea developed by Adrian Paci for his Lights to Serve the Night, the solo exhibition by the Albanian artist at the Museo Novecento and Le Murate. Progetti Arte Contemporanea venues in Florence and sites in the municipalities of Pelago and Montelupo Fiorentino. A many-faceted corpus of works offering intense, poetic interrogations centering on the themes of migration, identity and movement as flow. Tracking individual stories and calling to mind facts and transformations which have made recent history, Paci transcends his personal experience and addresses migration and mobility as ontological conditions, a highly-topical enquiry at a moment in history in which the very concepts of 'home' and 'identity' (cultural, political and social) are continually brought to the fore and questioned. Existence is interpreted as a continual search, as unceasing movement, and water is the taken as metaphor for human drifts and flows.
