It is a landscape performance imagined by DOM- for a community of children and parents. The title is inspired by Rachel Carson's text of the same name, one of the first ecological texts in the US in the 1970s. 

In the southern area of Milan in May 2023, two groups of children met in two different squares in the Corvetto and Vigentino neighbourhoods adjacent to the Vettabbia park. 

After listening to a fairy tale, the two communities walked to a field in the middle of the park at about the same time.

The field is a place known by the children involved, who last November sowed there the first 'Grain Library' in the city of Milan, regenerating a hectare of agricultural fields

Here the two communities meet and enter the field for a small collective ritual for the proliferation of pollinating insects and the beginning of spring.
