Hecate, Today

Overview

Hecate, Today is an investigation into visual anthropology and transformations of the imaginary, carried out by observing the urban landscape of Vimercate, a small town in Lombardy, Italy, and comparing the pervasive control of the territory by modern surveillance and satellite tracking systems with the function of ancient divinities responsible for protecting travellers, such as Hecate, who gives the work its title.
