Asinara used to be inhabited as a prison, with the highest order controlled by humans.



After the disintegration of the prison, everything on this island was liberated. The original order began to move in an exactly opposite direction from they used to be: Donkeys and goats became feral, so as those buildings, which used to be kind of domesticated, started to grow in a wild way.



When I noticed those beams and reinforcement are trying to get rid of the wall, even those walls themselves are no longer perfect, I realized Asinara is that place which allows you to be feral. Everything is trying to escape, to escape from the existing rules, from the society we are used to.



I tried to capture her feral way of growth. To reveal the feral, to present the feral, let's be feral.
