Light Spot

Through the last century the abandonment of buildings, migrant waves, drug distribution and La Pigna’s specific infrastructure and architecture, creates an insecure environment, isolation and lack of social relations.

Light Spot is a personal investigation in the life and history of La Pigna. To comprehend the current situation I talked with people and introduced them to each other in an attempt to enlarge the perimeter of communication.
