In Germany, in order to prevent the transformation of a small park next to a city, into a parking place, a cultural association organized an international workshop in which, young artists had to realize their work in situ, later presented and open to the public as an exhibition.
I realized the main entrance of the exhibition space, in a “street way”, crossing the main road and using organic materials, which I collected around the place. People had to step inside the “street” and slowly get inside the exhibition space, walking from the natural world to the built one. The organic material was organized in zones, creating patterns of color gradient.
