By intertwining my own photographs of fossils with found video footage from YouTube, I created a narrative that revolves around the orogenesis process which formed the Alps. For hundreds of millions of years, these mountains have been overwhelmed by water. They were the seabed of the ocean Tethys which, extinguishing, left behind fossils of fish and corals. Nowadays, they are still present on the Alps surfaces constituting an undoubted proof of the process. In a critique of the history writing, I created replicas of fossils that I eventually photographed and juxtaposed to archival materials seeking to build new narratives that could question or confirm historical facts belonging to our collective past and memory.
