The hummingbird is a magical animal; ancient peoples attributed healing power to it because of the love this bird imparts to people who come in contact with it. It is the smallest bird in the world, with the most beautiful plumage in the world. Its close contact with plants, of which it is an expert connoisseur, also makes it a symbol of healing, always ready to suck nectar through its beak and for this reason also believed to be a symbol of fertility. Its feathers are believed to be talismans capable of bringing joy and health. These photos tell of a Sibyl moving gracefully in its natural space, taking care of it like a hummingbird. Delicate, colorful, fairy-tale-like, she moves with delicacy and boldness among fig plants and walls that tell of ancient stories and a return to the future. A necessary return made of the sound of the wind in the trees and the scents of fertile life. Its colors are the manifesto of nature, just like the fantastic colors of the hummingbird.
