in his project, giovanni garrone introduces us to this world he has imagined, in which mythical places would become almost unrecognizable, while flourishing nature takes over its rights. monuments like saint peter’s basilica, the eiffel tower, san marco square, or the statue of liberty are represented in this series from a new wild perspective, showcasing the effects of a global quarantine which lasts longer than expected.
