Energ-ethic Mutations

The diffusion of wind energy is hugely modifying the European landscape. Together with the mutation of the territory, it changes also the human community through the gain of an ethical look on the complex relations between environment and development.

During five years of collaboration with a company active in renewable energies supply, from a simple documental approach, my photographic perception has focused on the way the ‘machine’ has taken its place in the landscape and in daily life. Windmills turned out to be able to get in harmony with nature, insomuch as if they were born from the nature itself. An awe-inspiring monument that can offer a new understanding of the relation between man and nature, with an amazing capacity to make the world think about the meaning of future.
