The over 500 images that make up the installation tell the story of the House of One, a multifaith building designed by Kuehn Malvezzi currently under construction in Berlin. It is a non-hierarchical and non-chronological storytelling that offers continuous visual suggestions to reconstruct the genesis and the design process of the Berlin building, but above all to re-think the methods of dialogue, integration and coexistence between the different communities that inhabit the city. Like the tiles of a cognitive mosaic, the images of Rituals/Materials describe a stratified operational cartography that gives the visitor the complex process of an extraordinary project, narrated by several authorial voices. Through a process of abstraction, the images propose the case of a Berlin as a paradigm of the contemporary city, in which migratory movements and growing globalization make the urban landscape a multifaceted and heterogeneous organism.
Rituals/Materials was born from an idea of Eleonora D’Alessandro, thanks to the collaboration between the Department of Architecture and the Department of Humanities of the Roma Tre University with the Isia of Urbino, the support of Villa Massimo and the patronage of the Department of Culture of the Municipality of Rome and the Interreligious Table of Rome . Opening tomorrow at 6pm.
