Beschreibung | - I am a wind sculpture by Florian Dombois, made of material from the abandoned islands of Venice. Many people helped to make me real. They sailed the lagoon on a dinghy with golden sails, collecting my backs and bones. I first appeared in the «Galleria del Vento» in the Research Pavilion, 2017. Later I lived in Caserma Pepe on the Lido. Even Google has seen me.
