Halfway between a video installation, a performance and an in situ work, Il carbonasso was created starting from the discovery and intense exploration of a hidden and isolated place near the Piave river. The video consists of a series of long and fixed shots in which it is possible to perceive a mysterious and elusive creature. Observation soon becomes contemplation and meditation in which the gaze is lost in the image in search of the enigmatic presence. The title of the work and the name of the (non) protagonist derive from the dialectal name of the rat snake, a very common non-poisonous snake near water courses.
