In Grasse, in the south of France, a red house immersed in nature became my magical cave for five years. Hidden among trees and silence, it was more than a home — it was a place of initiation. Within its walls I studied and practiced domestic rituals, rediscovering a dialogue with my hands and with the space surrounding me. Everyday gestures transformed into acts of attention, repetition into meditation. Nature shaped my perception of time. Through the slow rhythm of changing seasons, I learned the meaning of transition of blooming, fading, resting, and returning. The landscape became both teacher and mirror, guiding me toward a deeper awareness of presence and transformation. That house was not only a refuge, but a threshold a space where intimacy, matter, and imagination quietly converged.
