Stelian Pavalache
I would open my eyes and my ears passing through a dark corridor imagining myself with my eyes in the developerâs tray of my old man. Images of people and moods, emotions and smooth foreheads were printed in negative on the walls, colored laughs emerged from the pitch black. I would often almost fall tripping in the holes of the decrepit asphalt but I would not take my eyes off my own imagination.
