Trans-letter is one of the most appreciated and recognized works of Rabarama, internationally. The position of intense reflection can only make us imagine what this figure is thinking, and it is precisely on the transmission of direct messages, released from what is the language barrier, that this work focuses. In his artistic career, Rabarama studies language as a method of communication, but he analyzes every single letter as a stand-alone, going beyond the single meaning of words. We then come to analyze the metalanguage, or the exploitation of symbols for a transmission without information filters. Trans-lettera sends us a direct, visible message, reported directly on the skin. It is up to each of us to find the key to understanding and decipher our very personal food for thought.
