"Pompei City Vortex"

 The water that floods Pompeii represents the lava that submerged it 2000 years ago with the eruption of 79 AD. The ruins visited by millions of tourists every year are a clear example of resilience, demonstrating that people's work, whether artistic or not, can withstand time and adversity. We human beings live a short passage in the physical world, but the achievements of civilization and creative expressions transcend time and teach us how to continually reinvent ourselves from a human, social and artistic point of view.
