Description

It is not only people who contain the memory of a place: buildings too are loaded with memories of the uses and lives that occupy them. The built fabric reflects social behaviour. It speaks of a way of using the ground, the sky, and of a way of inhabiting. As an architect, to read the memories held in buildings and people is to think about a future that depends on that past.
To open the discussion around these thoughts Flores & Prats have brought process material to Venice, unfinished drawings and models, documents that incorporate doubts and reflections, lying on tables to encourage exchange. These documents, organised as a kind of workshop, will be the beginning of a conversation, objects between people and subjects such as The Unfinished Condition of the Ruin, The Right to Inherit, Drawing With Time, and The Value of Use.
