Territorio (The Road)

Niemi-Junkola Fanni

In the video work Territorio (The Road), based on true events, I explore the ethical stress caused by environmental destruction. The work presents a vision in which collapse can also mark a new beginning and raises the question of how we might respond to the challenges of repairing and renewing the environment.
