#1 Air Force One
#2 Air Force Two
The protagonist Icarus, the Mannerism of the Renaissance and the symbol of sublime power Air Force One -the plane of the American President- are the main points in this work.
The combination of pathos, beauty and unnatural movement of Italian Mannerists concealing some aggression.

When i was small and just about to learn swimming i was petrified that my swimmies would leak. I squeezed them constantly to check the air level. Surprisingly the swimmies had a different effect outside the water, they gave me tremendous self assurance. In default of that i just left them on all the time.
