"#NeoXIX: The island of Capri" represents a fiction that manifests a series of illustrations about the near future we are approaching,
Or are we already in it?
Or are we not able to see it?
The images of Tiberius's Villa Jovis, symbol of Roman imperial power, completely rebuilt, and the famous Faraglioni, place of love, boat rides, turqoise waters and advertisements for expensive perfumes are now the scene of transit of infinite freight ships. New forests emerge on the sea, a new landscape is created.
Can we choose another path?
We are doomed?
