work in progress gif, 2019-2020 from the collaborative project 'PYF - Present and Future of the Human Civilisation'

My inspiration source for this piece was the italian steel factory ArcelorMittal (ex Ilva) and its impact on the environment and the people who live near it. Although an official detailed study has never been conducted by the government, recent regional data reports a ten percent increase in children’s congenital malformations in the factory’s area. I’ve imagined a future where Ilva and its surroundings had been taken over by nature again.
