In this project I speak of transformed animals, linked to living toys: a link between the servants and human beings.

The protagonist visible in this video is a snail, being a species of small Mollusca it has a very particular and natural shape, completely servant and original. It hides in our gardens between grass and earth, lives in another dimension of the world but at the same time it is also very close to our daily lives.

Another protagonist is physically invisible, it's me, a human being. One day I discovered it in the garden, and I brought it into my script.

The snail crawls in the different scenes that I invented, crawls in a glass container filled with grass and earth, on the mirror and the green silicone, among the toys and fake nature, on my identity, in the virtual world and then disappears becoming the bubbles of 'water.

In this speech the snail has become a living toy.
