Incised

INCISED is a multimedia video installation that delves into the environmental and emotional consequences of large-scale marble extraction in Tuscany’s Carrara region. Against the stunning backdrop of rolling green hills, violently disrupted by deep industrial wounds, the work reveals the uneasy tension between the natural landscape and human exploitation. Filmed on location, the piece documents how these ancient mountains once whole and sacred are gradually hollowed out, block by block. What was once a revered source of material for Michelangelo and Canova has become a site of mass production, feeding a global appetite for luxury and excess. The result is a landscape stripped of its essence, a place where beauty and destruction coexist.
