Emerges out of the collective experience of inhabiting Venice and its lagoon as a method to enable a transformative process of mutual learning and sharing between us, as a temporary community, and the surrounding contexts—both human and non-human.

The broader research adopts the concept of radical empathy as an experimental pedagogical approach.This opens up possibilities to conceive design strategies as an expression of our ability to engage with diverse contexts and forms of otherness, guided by a renewed sense of care, understanding, and collective imagination. 

Based on Seven different site-specific themes, all revolving around Venice and its lagoon, conceived as spaces to bring forth artistic and design interventions.

Each piece goes beyond the mere exhibited artefact, representing a stage in a year-long research process that aims to further evolve and deepen over time.
