«Art creates an environmental space, to the same extent that the environment creates art.»
The site concept was realized in the ephemeral wooden theater in front of the Baglio Florio at the Archaeological Park of Selinunte during the XI Architects meet in Selinunte 2022, with the collaboration of the Foundation of Architects of Trapani FLG and the Order of Architects P.P.C. of Trapani.
The summer solstice, the Mediterranean theater, the trident of Minissi and Portinai, and the delicate moment that humanity is going through, were the inspirations for creating a Land Art intervention with minimal expense. The performance, in which time plays a crucial role with collaborative and socially aware interventions, actively engages with the environment in its natural, political, historical, and social dimensions.
"Architectures of sound" and exchanges of atmospheres, through the timbral control typical of European electronic music, accompany and interact with the "action" through a journey of sounds and concrete music built in real-time: Synopsis/“Hommage à Iannis Xenakis”.
A place where men and women could send a message of peace in the classical and contemporary landscape. A performance of instant sketches by architects, both young and old, lying on cardboard reels/mats, useful for sketches inspired by the project's capacity as an expression of civic engagement.
The project was selected for the 2022 "Italian Architect Award" promoted by the National Council of Architects and published in "Yearbook 7".
