The idea of the Glimmu character came from a desire to create an original hero for pop art… not to reinterpret existing figures, but to invent something of my own.
At a certain point, it became clear that this character had to emerge not from style, but from emotion…
Any emotion we experience, strangely enough, is still connected to childhood.
No matter how old we are… joy, attachment, resistance, rejection — all of these follow the same inner logic we had at the very beginning.
Even the warmest adult memories… of youth, of the birth of our own children… carry this sense of childlike feeling, where one emotion can quickly shift into another.
Glimmu appeared as an image of this emotional memory.
Not of an idealized childhood… but of a state where vulnerability and warmth exist at the same time.
