    Beatrice Catanzaro documentation MAMMALITURCHI Temporary public installation wood structure + 431 lights A 10 meters illuminated sign placed under two trees on the most pop- ular beach in Porto Cesario (Puglia), saying PUNKABBESTIA. Porto Cesario - Italy 2007 Porto Cesario is a small community of 5000 inhabitants during winter season (that reaches picks of 100.000 in summer), due to it size, relations among citizen of Porto Cesario are very close. On the contrary, the “foreign” (“what comes from outside”) is often seen with a certain degree of suspect. With the installation I intended to comment on the seasonal fear of hippies (punkab- bestia) free camping on the southern cost of Italy and on the mystification of this phenomenon by local media. PUNKABBESTIA / from Wikipedia Punkabbestia is a slangy term used for identifying a type of vaga- bond and met-ropolitan homeless.Etymology The word seems to derive from the union of the words punk (subculture with which the punkabbestia have in common nu-merous nihilistic attitudes as the abuse of alcohol or other drugs, but not neces-sarily the musical references or the look) and beast (because of the stray dogs with which they are accompanied and of the displayed lack of care and personal hy-giene).According to others the word punkabbes-tia would have been coined in the years ‘80 from the Tuscan punks. Initially such term pointed out the punks that brought their ideological choice to the extreme, both politically and aesthetically, refusing in the whole in force society.Sociologi- cal description Punkabbestia is a term that has the ten-dency to be used for pointing out differ-ent types of social behaviours, also very distant between them: the term would treat therefore more an aesthetical pre-conception that a real category of people.

Vicious cycle of poverty Squat in the city Walk to work Reduced work options Transport & Urban Poor ‐ Metros y Land market dynamics (speculative land market) have led to urban sprawl. y Thus, the cost of travel, especially for the poor, has increased considerably (NUTP, 2006). y Long distances to commute dissuades people from using cheaper non‐motorized modes like cycling and walking. y Increase in private vehicles on one hand and lack of infrastructure has made non‐motorized mode of transport risky. y Thus, poor’s access to livelihood have become far more difficult. y In particular, women from the low income settlements find it difficult to access work y Spaces for vending are vanishing on account of public transit systems as well besides competing demands of private vehicular traffic and parking Environmental sustainability vs social sustainability y Green Agendas have Conflicted with Habitat Agenda –BEAG PILs, middle class environmentalism vs Right to Shelter y Example of BRTS, Ahmedabad – 2000 vendors displaced y 72.2 per cent urban workers in all India (NSSO 2007), many of these
