Short Description

In the project "Alto Mare," the focus is on drawing a connection between the rising seas, which submerge every land, and our preoccupation with defending territorial borders.
While the issue of sustainability demands a united effort and collective action, the division and defense of borders drive us further apart.

Through this mutilated atlas, where the lands have disappeared and only borders remain, the work reveals the absurdity of a world where only water will be divided from water—exposing the paradox of our current condition.
