Why collecting art? Why do we keep on buying works of art when we can no longer look at them all together and it is really complicated to enjoy the whole collection? It is not easy to explain. There is an inner tension, questions waiting for an answer, doors start opening when you stand in front of one particular piece, windows. It is like a mechanism that activates automatically: you see yourself, it is a search for your own identity. We look for what it is missing, what completes us, we find it in what we look at, all that which develops and fulfils us, what makes us grow, what we know intuitively but we can not express in words. This selection of artworks includes videos from our own collection and also from artists that we admire and follow. In most cases, we own some of their pieces, other than videos. This is our particular view. We choose what moves us, and so the collection portrays and defines us. It is also the story of our past years together, our identity.
