The choice of the place, a camping site, is emblematic for the artist, in a tourist city like Venice where the influence of tourists from all over the world is remarkable. This place represents a no-man's land for the artist. In military suit together with another performer, with a red arm band on their arms marked with two letters UN Utopia Nations, in front of the entrance barrier, they assumed the position of control and security. Practically in defense of nothing.
