The evening will include an introduction by writer Elio Goka and an interview with journalist Davide Speranza. During the event, a panel from the work will be donated to one random participant.

The Creative Process
Luigi Mascolo said: "What I was, I dreamed... is my first graphic novel. Born almost by chance during the pandemic, it began as small illustrations with text on social media, evolving into a full-blown story. Luna is the first volume, followed by Catene e Specchi. Presenting this work in Nocera Inferiore, the place where it all began, represents a circle closing and a new journey beginning."
Text, Illustration and Comics
The project stands out for the integration of three expressive languages, aimed at enhancing the narrative message and the visual impact. The story is divided into three chapters: Luna, Catene, Specchi, with black and white tables interspersed with color splash pages, inspired by famous paintings and movie scenes.

The presentation of the trilogy by Luigi Mascolo seems very interesting, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to go. David Lynch is a director I've always appreciated, and I like the idea of a tribute to him.
