TROPICI is a research presentation on the theme of exploratory travel. The term evokes the idea of a distant and mysterious place, the desire to reach what is unknown, unexplored, or imaginary.
 To travel means to cross different worlds, to pierce through different realities, to observe how landscapes change: sometimes slowly and imperceptibly, other times in sudden flashes. As happens when looking out of a window during a journey, the territory can transform without warning—from vineyards to forests, from rainforests to deserts, to stretches of concrete. In other cases, one becomes so accustomed to a view that it feels immobile, when it shifts, the change appears unexpected and powerful. At times, time and space expand, making the journey exhausting, even painful.
