Here, between solid and liquid

"... se l’omo à in se il lago del sangue, dove crescie e discrescie il polmone nello alitare, il corpo della terra à il suo oceano mare, il quale ancora lui crescie e discrescie ogni sei ore per lo alitare del mondo. Se dal detto lago di sangue dirivano vene, che si vanno ramificando per lo corpo umano, similmente il mare oceano empie il corpo della terra d’infinite vene d’acqua." Leanardo Da Vinci, Frammenti letterari e filosofici, Paragone dell'uomo e del mondo. Comincimaento del trattato dell'acqua.

The Venice lagoon is the largest in Italy, 70% of which is made up of bodies of water, similarly our own bodies.
The first settlers in the Northern lagoon where I shot the drone footage, were called Veneti, of Indoeuropean origin. The ethonym is derived from Proto Indo-European root *wen- ‘to strive, to wish for, to love’. Etymologically related the Latin venus, -eris ‘love, passion’; Sanskrit vani- ‘wish, desire’; Proto-Celtic *venjā ‘kinship. In Akkadian, the East Semitic language spoken in ancient Mesopotamia, ‘wenu’ meant source or river. The Latin appellation vena ‘vein has also as its fundamental meaning that of ‘blood channel and then by metaphor that of ‘water channel'.
Drawing from this metaphorical analogy, from the womb of the lagoon to the lagoon in the womb, I created a work where this pulsating ecosystem is symbiotically paired to human circulation, but reversing the anthropocentrism of Humanism in favor of a new materialism, where materiality is vital and vibrant, through and across bodies, both human and nonhuman.
