The works of Ghezzi are the product of the interaction between “amphibious” canvases (installations between land, water and air) and the natural environment. The project designed for Venice, Naturografie ăquae, stems from the desire to investigate the Lagoon in all its aspects, and intervene both in the most urbanized areas such as the Arsenal, and in more natural areas such as the WWF Valle Averto Oasis or in re-naturalized areas such as the sandbanks south of Venice. The artist gave the CNR ISMAR and IOM researchers samples of the canvases when they were taken so that they could study their naturalistic characteristics and in particular how the ecosystem of the real environments reacts with the various types of fabric.
