Nomadic Violence is a photographic project by Nicolò Carlon and Diego De Lazzer, two young artists both graduating in architecture. This work is born as an experimental research, combining biology, high-tech consumption and photography. The project begins with an interesting question: how can a without face living object, which does not belong to the animal kingdom, to the vegetable or to the mineral kingdom, can behave in front of a camera lens?

This is the case of the Physarum Polycephalum, also called “semi-intelligent mud“.
The growth of this being, similar to a lichen, has unique characteristics such as the ability to solve labyrinths and synthesize the most effective geometric pathways for nutrition supply.

Polycephalum has grown on what humanity is now accustomed to considering as the apotheosis of the artwork or broken parts, pieces of electronic components, anatomical plates, chips and cards coming from any type of computer and digital instruments Subsequently it was photographed by the two young artists using Macro lenses, reflected light (and absorbed by the subject itself) and ultraviolet light, ad hoc.
