Compost No. 3 is the third installment of the Compost series. It's an artistic project that combines science, video art, and digital sculpture, drawing inspiration from Donna Haraway's recent studies on the concept of the Chthulucene: not a post-human world but a "human compost" world characterized by a continuous process of composition and decomposition.

In Compost No. 3, a female body navigating through a liquid landscape infiltrated by technology undergoes composting, becoming the lifeblood of a potential regeneration for a hybrid human/non-human being, the sole hope for a planet already damaged. This process of metamorphosis and renewal challenges the very role of the individual and connects both to Western and Eastern birth myths and to the mysteries of the chthonic world.
