The ark amplifies the primal impulse of the human being to collect, to create and then to display.
In contrast with the museum tactics to exhibit the objects according to their identity, the ark of the forgotten let them garden their own narratives and personal mythologies.
These three urges write the inner Odyssey, so that childhood fascinations, fears, memories and nostalgia find the Ark and are safe and protected.
The project explores how a child’s loneliness creates dreamscapes metonymized into daydreaming and then into live adaptations of those memories and narratives in adulthood.
