For over a century, Mount Amiata, a volcanic mountain in southern Tuscany, Italy, was one of the world's leading mercury mining districts, supplying a significant share of the mercury used by global industry. When extraction ceased, it left behind more than abandoned infrastructure: it transformed the relationship between the landscape and those who continued to inhabit it. The project explores how this invisible legacy remains embedded in both the territory and its communities. Drawing on the neurological effects of mercury exposure—where perception itself can become unstable—the work moves between documentation and imagination, constructing a narrative in which mercury is no longer simply a mineral extracted from the earth, but a lingering presence that shapes memory, perception and the experience of place.
