Abstract

During a period of exploration Alessandro Carboni explored the area along the creek on different geographical scales. On the one hand, interdisciplinary exploration led him to discover the paths along the canal with the use of various media such as field recordings, photographs and videos; on the other hand, exploration was carried out on a human scale: through interviews with researchers and local inhabitants from Pantang village, characterized by the exchange between the people and the artist, in which ideas have emerged and points of view on the history of Lizhiwan Creek and its current status. This time of sharing, allowed the artist to collect materials, experiences and stories about the canal, and use them as inspiration for the installation and the performance.During the exploration of some ruined part of Pantang village, Alessandro collected old bricks in which they are used for the creation of miniature map of the territory. The entire project attempt to create a visual, geographical, historical and personal point of view of Lizhiwan Creek and its current status.
