Italy

The exhibition TERRÆAQUÆ. L’Italia e l’intelligenza del mare places the SEA once again at the heart of cultural reflection—expanding the Mediterranean to embrace adjacent oceans—and highlights Italy as the EARTH shaped and embraced by the sea.
In the delicate environmental balance, seas are among the primary victims of climate change. The view of Italy from the sea suggests a new perspective, a need to rethink the design of the border between land and water as an integrated system of architecture, infrastructure and landscape, inspired by a “maritime” culture whose relationship with the land evokes ritual and discovery.
