Italy-China Biennial
Exhibitions, Italy, Monza, 20 September 2012
A snail, fragile invertebrate of the mollusc family, in the foreground and mechanical prostheses for the fast and protected mobility of humans, rusty mimesis in the background, with no function.
Natural time, cosmic, non-time.
Human time, artificially marked.
The perfection of nature. The animal designed to survive in the environment and the car abandoned and attacked by natural agents, call for a reflection on human precariousness and on the contradictory potential of human ingenuity, increasingly dangerous and alien to their own habitat.
