“Drop a line in the wind” is an anthropological and mystical journey into the origins of the tarantella. According to popular beliefs, the tarantella was a dance that could heal a person suffering from the bite of a tarantula - the mythical spider from the province of Taranto in South of Italy. This project questions the need to create new rituals and seeks to understand how this transformation has a meaning for us today.
