The Monte Chiodo trail
Walking in an art gallery. On Monte Chiodo, above Lake Martignano, there is a free-entry path dotted with 14 wooden sculptures. A turtle, a heron, a snake, a fish, a fox.
Angel created them: ‘’I like playing with names: Angel, read backwards, is Legna, and Angel is neither Angelo nor Angela, but both, just like an angel‘’. His real name is Gian Michele Montanaro, he is 47 years old and left-handed, from San Potito Sannitico by birth but from Anguillara by adoption. The idea came to him during his first Covid quarantine: to bring back to life dead trees burnt in arson fires or collapsed in the wind. A way to escape captivity, an action of human awareness. People liked them and the park adopted them. For me, ‘it was a sign of gratitude to nature, a chance to listen to the wood and a way to try to restore beauty and harmony’.
