“the flower is a device that
changes the logic of the individual organism:
it is the ultimate threshold in which the
individual and the species open up to the
possibilities of mutation, change, death.”
[coccyx]

zagara is the sex of citrus plants, as in all fanerogamic plants (fanerogamic: exposed unions) exposed to unknown encounter. A soft and fragrant place-device, seductive, where friction and gluttony confuses and recomposes the world in an interspecies and interorganic juicy orgy.

zagara is the flower of the limoni g corp, blossoming at n0dine for the out-of-season short period in between thr 7th and 22nd of November. zagara is me offering my mouth and saliva to share a slice of this garden with you. 🌱

come!

[EN] At n0dine Matteo De Blasio collects evidence of his long relationship with limoni plants, in preparation for November’s ‘limoni rainfall’. What began as a small act of intimate protest in 2020, continues as futuristic garden, expanded through fiction. The marks left by “ai limoni del futuro” go beyond language and the individual, and witness a realm where reality and pleasure melt into each other like long kisses.

[NL] n0dine bereidt zich voor op de ‘limoni-regenval’ in november. Matteo De Blasio verzamelt bewijzen van zijn langdurige relatie met limoni-planten. Wat begon als een kleine daad van intiem protest in 2020, breidt zich verder uit tot een futuristische tuin door middel van fictie. De sporen die “ai limoni del futuro” achterlaat gaan verder dan taal en het individu. Ze getuigen van een rijk waar realiteit en plezier in elkaar overvloeien als lange kussen.
