The strength to get back up, the ability to start living again despite the misadventures and adversities of fate. An ever-current theme, taken up and traced on the sand of the Sorso coast by the Nuoro artist Nicola Urru.

This time he chose the fifth comb of the Platamona coast to draw the image "Post fata resurgo" on the beach, a Latin phrase meaning "after death I rise", or the motto of the Phoenix, the bird sacred to the ancient Egyptians .

«There is something that we can gain from pain, like from any other side of life and, not knowing our destiny, we are forced to live every moment, including the one steeped in suffering», says Nicola Urru. «Who knows if the soul is so capable of bending to every condition, and yet then reuniting, expanding, becoming fuller, wiser», he comments, «I ask myself this every time I witness the rebirth, often slow but unstoppable, of many people that I know".

Once again that ephemeral sculpture of sand that the sea erases and takes away manages to strike, for its dimensions, for its profound meaning.
