SHORT LIFE
L'inquinamento è un veleno sottile che uccide senza essere visto, modificando in maniera irreparabile il contesto ambientale dove agisce. Ne è un esempio la fabbrica di soda presente a Rosignano, che in cento anni ha influito radicalmente sul paesaggio. I primi a soccombere sono gli organismi più piccoli, ma gli esseri umani non sono certo immuni.

SHORT LIFE
Pollution is a subtle poison that kills unseen, irreversibly modifying the environment where it acts. A fitting example is the soda factory which has stood a few metres from the sea at Rosignano since 1914 and in these hundred years has radically changed the colour of the sand and water. Nothing escapes pollution: at the beginning the first to succumb are the smallest organisms, but human beings are not immune and are equally at risk.
Symbolically, like a beached whale, the lifeless body of a woman is given up by the sea, washed up onto the land on a day like any other, with a few people strolling along the water-line as unwitting spectators. Everything is immobile, crystallised in an ethereal light.
