18H30 – Opening of the exhibition ” Rhizome”

 This curatorial project is carried out, collaboratively, by all the artists-researchers who are part of it, according to the assumptions and requirements needed for the organization of the exhibition, which were presented to us in the discipline of “Curatorship and Digital Artistic Intervention”.

The jointly built curatorial project encompasses the preferences, suggestions, and participation of all the artists involved, which was only possible through dedication, continuous communication, suggestions, and constructive discussions on the points to be improved in the project.

This project aims to organize the exhibition in a way that interconnects the multiplicity of the topics of the artifacts and the characteristics and specificities of all, as constituent parts of a single concept, also connecting them to the space where the exhibition will take place and to the other participants (including the public).
