In 2022, the artist visited Scampia, a district on the outskirts of Naples, Italy. The area, originally designed by Franz Di Salvo and completed in 1975, once consisted of seven buildings intended as utopian social housing. However, the planned infrastructure was never fully realized, which led to rising poverty, mafia and drug activity. Continual neglect to the buildings and the people who live there only increased problems. Today, only three buildings remain. On July 22, 2024, a passageway in one of the remaining buildings collapsed, killing three people and displacing 800 others. Promised replacement housing, scheduled for years ago, remains delayed. Now, the mayor of Naples has ordered the eviction of the inhabitants of the other two Veles, due to safety concerns.
