My research delves into the relationship between Man and Nature and the emotional implications of the relationship between human and dwelling. In this research, landscape is the protagonist. People today rule over 75% of the land not covered by ice, which has led to modifying and shaping places, ignoring the lifegiving forces of nature. The attempts of modern people to appropriate the environment that hosts them are many, The large cities increasingly resemble non-places, complicate the relationship between man and nature that hosts him but then in turn man hosts gardens and parks in cities that are nothing more than reproductions of nature itself, artificially limiting natural spaces through fences. By drawing borders between countries, people build their own houses and cities without consideration of the consequences. The meaning of inhabiting is of a self within a space but it is also living in that space by shaping it and molding oneself to the space itself. To inhabit is to shape spaces to the extent that we also take our own shape from those spaces. The purpose of Marilina Marchica's research, then, is not the form but the reflection that arises from it or around it in relation to the experience of living.
