On the ground among the animals Is a research project that takes the Natura 2000 network as a reference for researching the place that human beings occupy within nature. This network is a series of ecological corridors promoted by the European Union, created to preserve fauna, flora and biodiversity. It is a transnational communication system that goes beyond the border policies of each state, and puts ecological logic first. This work explores the tensions that emerge from the power that human beings try to exert over nature. To do so, Marina Caneve analyses the contradictory relationships between infrastructure construction, policies and freedom of movement, and nature conservation.
