Terre du Ciel | AUGUST 2ND
There are places where the earth seems to draw closer to the sky.
Hamlets suspended between memory and the wind, stones that guard voices, mountains that are not merely landscape but destiny, wound, protection, and story.
Rochemolles, a marvelous hamlet of Bardonecchia, is one of these places. Overwhelmed and destroyed by an avalanche in 1706, and struck again in 1961, it carries within its history the mark of an ancient fragility and a stubborn capacity for rebirth.
