Anna Tsoufoufi. The artist tried to make a monument dedicated to the life of Venice, by photographing new born babies. For reasons of privacy this was not possible without the co-operation of an experimental kindergarten. The project was born out of the knowledge that Venice's birth rate is declining and that there is a disproportionate number of tourists to residents.
