This book produced for the exhibition "The Land Seen from the Sea" held at the Museo d’Arte Contemporanea di Villa Croce in Genoa in 2012 is a collection of notes, the tale of a journey that roamed through various regions of Europe with the goal of getting a perspective on the state of art, the practice of travel and the perception of distance in specific geographical areas.

The project aimed at exploring contemporary artistic practice in the small states of Europe and in certain geocultural micro-areas: San Marino, Luxembourg and Iceland, as well as Milan, Malta and Genoa, were some of the stops along the way, in an initiative that has attempted to focus, in particular, on the aesthetic question of the experience of travel.
