The devastation of marvel and the spread of trash
Let me tell you a little story.
An artist friend of mine (paintress and sculptress) Babs Lecoq, posted on Facebook and Instagram the photo of a woman’s statue, that you see below. Is it vulgar? Does this upset you?
Well? In this other photo here is the answer from the social forums... it speaks for itself...
I'd like to find out who reported this photo and what his mental problems are [...]

The "NOVA YOUTH"
How many of you have heard: "Aaah, the young people of today!!"
But have you ever wondered who the young people of today really are?
“This generation of stragglers, without values, unable to wait, the boys of "everything at once" who don’t want to make sacrifices and don’t want to commit.”
First of all, you can't generalize. Not everyone is like that...
Besides, who exactly is responsible [...]

My silent war has begun
The elimination of everything defacing relationships, love and art FIRST ACT: SOCIAL MEDIA
Things happen for a precise reason. Yes, it is.
I had been brewing for some time to give up with Facebook and Instagram, the hottest trending social media at the time. But I was still a long way from making my final decision. Maybe for fear of […]

The age of the "carelessness exhibitionism"
An age ruled by inaccuracy, too often confused with lightness.
There is a strong desensitization and a global apathy. Everything's spinning too fast. Increasingly tight deadlines and shorter times force us to run, doing, doing and doing... without sometimes thinking about what we are really doing. And so whatever pops up.
Reinventing and changing [...]

What if the alter ego takes over?
Well… yes, sometimes in the building of my mind Silversnake Michelle takes over Micaela and I struggle. She becomes an intrusive, bulky presence.
I loathed her, I tried to kill her, but nothing... immortal like a shadow...
I have already told a thousand times about the making of Silversnake, but perhaps day by day I even more understand its deeper meaning [...]

That damned need for…
Evil I’ve often encountered in life; it was the strangled rivulet gurgling, it was the shriveling of parched leaves, it was the horse falling heavily. Good I have not known; except the wonder that reveals divine Indifference; it was the statue in the somnolence of noon, and the cloud, and the hawk flying high. Eugenio Montale (Italian poet).
Yes, the evil of living, [...]

Golden ratio frequency - 432 Hz
The sound, by its very nature, has the property of resonating with surrounding bodies. When the emitted vibration is in resonance with the receiving one’s vibration, then Harmony is generated.
My third published work, the EP "BURIES THE SECRET OF... ", was recorded with an A tuning at 432 [...]

The turning point
We've said it all the way.
We yelled against talent shows spoiling the music, against musicians lending themselves for the money, for being judges at these shows and against the "artists" whoring out and renouncing themselves in order to achieve fame.
Now we need to find solutions. We need propositions [...]

DIALLELE
"DIALLELE", is the third single from the album "Her Snakeness".
In this song Silversnake Michelle talks about the vicious cycle of an endless life repeating itself.
Events recur in an “equally different” way. Silversnake feels out of this world, locked in a "white room" and smashes the mirror where she sees an image [...]

Boredom generation: Era of Fog
Art is unique but blows up in many different styles, telling in dreams the human reality.
It always contains a message, a meaning… It must not be understandable but perceivable… that’s the good thing.
And today? The only artists scratching and shouting themselves are in the shade. Into the fog of “Nothing” that nearly engulfs and crumbles “the land of Fantastica”. [...]

The birth of the universe according to Silversnake Michelle
DNA (Denial Normal Abduction), the new single, tells about the birth of the Universe.
The Universe comes to life. I like to imagine that life of celestial bodies is animated, and that both matter and atoms feel emotions and sensations similar to ours.
Atoms get bored, stars play somersaults on the Milky Way, and the Big Bang [...]

DROPS OF TIME: Entrapped in the unreality of time
A lyrics stating the strong feeling of relentlessness of the passing. A sensation of anxiety and restlessness surrounds me and I feel what is the great lie of life: we think we exist but we're just an image’s projection, of an incredibly distant light.
Life is so fast that I can't realize [...]

My very first song: SILVERSNAKE
Alhaji Abubakari Lunna, a great African percussionist playing talking drums, claimed that Western music is perceivable, that is based on sensations and it releases emotions. On the opposite, the "singing drums" create "understandable" music. With these the music already speaks for itself and everyone understands its meaning... lyrics are redundant, as if a painter were writing a text on a painting...

Silversnake Michelle's message
I decided to get to really know myself, and to reveal my soul... to myself above all.
To do so, I needed a means, a shape. I don't know exactly how I am and who I am, maybe I'm nothing without a shape and I just wanted my emotions to take one.
Sometimes I paint and, even more easily, I write [...]

Silversnake Michelle: the name
I mean, that strong but repressed instinct came out of me because of my new motherhood.
This condition has cornered me. And then I couldn't help but explode and pull myself out of that shell where I had allowed the others to lock me captive (even if only for good). [...]
